*BONUS* An Evening with Dan McClellan

Our next installment of our summer series, “Grab Bag,” draws our attention to a series of “blessings” Jesus pronounces in the Gospel of Matthew. Known as “The Beatitudes,” these blessings are announced to people in unlikely situations - we don’t often feel blessed when mourning, hungry, or persecuted, for example. What is Jesus doing with these blessings? What do they teach us about Jesus’s vision for the world? Josh explores this and more in this week's message!⛪️ To learn more about who we are and what we do, visit https://gracepointe.net/about-us🗣 For weekly event and ways to get plugged in, visit https://gracepointe.net/calendar🙌 To become a sustaining member of the GracePointe community, visit https://gracepointe.net/giveLike us on Facebook at https://facebook.com/gracepointetnFollow us on Instagram at https://instagram.com/gracepointetn

It's time for PRIDE! Each year during Nashville Pride we take some time to reflect on the importance of Pride - what is means and why it matters for a church to celebrate it together. This year we were so fortunate to hear from a panel of our own GPers about what Pride means to them and their journey. This is a powerful conversation that you won't want to miss! ⛪️ To learn more about who we are and what we do, visit https://gracepointe.net/about-us🗣 For weekly event and ways to get plugged in, visit https://gracepointe.net/calendar🙌 To become a sustaining member of the GracePointe community, visit https://gracepointe.net/giveLike us on Facebook at https://facebook.com/gracepointetnFollow us on Instagram at https://instagram.com/gracepointetn

This week we continued our “Grab Bag” series by turning to an important question: Is Jesus our savior? To uncover that we explored the meaning of salvation in Scripture, and the wider culture of Roman Imperial theology. The teaching concludes with a helpful conversation between Josh Scott and Stan Mitchell about the meanings of salvation in Progressive Christianity.⛪️ To learn more about who we are and what we do, visit https://gracepointe.net/about-us🗣 For weekly event and ways to get plugged in, visit https://gracepointe.net/calendar🙌 To become a sustaining member of the GracePointe community, visit https://gracepointe.net/giveLike us on Facebook at https://facebook.com/gracepointetnFollow us on Instagram at https://instagram.com/gracepointetn

Our summer series, called “Grab Bag,” continued last Sunday with a focus on the New Testament/Christian Scriptures. Just like with the Hebrew Bible, we explored, not just the who, when, and why of these texts, but also the practical questions of why they matter and how we can best engage them. ⛪️ To learn more about who we are and what we do, visit https://gracepointe.net/about-us🗣 For weekly event and ways to get plugged in, visit https://gracepointe.net/calendar🙌 To become a sustaining member of the GracePointe community, visit https://gracepointe.net/giveLike us on Facebook at https://facebook.com/gracepointetnFollow us on Instagram at https://instagram.com/gracepointetn

This Spring/Summer marks the 1700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea. While many Christians have some sene fo the significance of this first church council, the details can be a bit murky. What happened at Nicaea in the year 325 CE? What didn’t happen? Why does it matter all these years later?

This week we continued our new summer series, “Grab Bag,” by focusing on the book of Revelation. This book is full of strange symbols and shocking images, but what is the point or meaning of it all? Does it predict the future or is it about something else? Josh talks about all that and more in this week’s message.*⛪️ To learn more about who we are and what we do, visit https://gracepointe.net/about-us🗣 For weekly event and ways to get plugged in, visit https://gracepointe.net/calendar🙌 To become a sustaining member of the GracePointe community, visit https://gracepointe.net/giveLike us on Facebook at   / gracepointetn  Follow us on Instagram at   / gracepointetn
