The Holy Spirit has been fixing my heart and mind recently on the unity of our body of believers we call Grace Church. We’re in a spiritual battle. It’s increasing every day. How can we make the joints and sinews of our body stronger so we can withstand? Unity.

I’m so excited about our body’s focus this year on personal evangelism – on sharing the One Message with our family, friends, and neighbors (all those with whom God places us in contact).

Imagine these voices with me from the silent thoughts of fellow Gracers: “I came to church struggling with how I could have a relationship with God when I’ve done so many things wrong. You’ve dealt with the same questions. I needed to talk to you. Where were you?”

The One Who Never Sleeps (Psalm 121)

I was recently watching some folks ice skating at one of our local rinks that pop up in the winter. My attention was drawn to a father and young son, probably five or six years old and obviously new to the rink. The boy was trying to be independent. He would shuffle along, and the dad would skate close by him. As the boy would lose his balance, he would grab for his dad’s hand or arm and steady himself.
