What's so amazing about Grace.

I am so excited - I get to preach again this Sunday for Easter and then the next 4 weeks - we are going to examine Grace. -what it is - what grace motivates us to do and how we are to reflect grace in our world. I appreciate your prayers.

I love our pastoral team - these guys just love to do ministry and do it well - Jay Hawpe, Jim Black and Andy Rogers are 3 guys who just love Jesus and love doing God's work. We are so blessed to have such amazing volunteers and awesome leaders. Yesterday I had the opportunity to meet with the Worship Team - these people are not only incredible musicians and vocalists but also people whose hearts are focused on and surrendered to God's purpose. I appreciate their commitment and service at Horizons.
