Women's Meeting Tonight

ALL LADIES, HIGH-SCHOOL AGE AND OLDER ARE INVITED

Our Women’s Ministry exists to promote the growth of women in Christ as women in Christ. Each month, the ladies of CGSA meet together for a time of discussion where “women talk like women” about God, rich fellowship, and encouraging one another. Tonight, they’ll kick off a discussion of the Shaping Virtues of our family of churches & ask how they can embody the virtue of humility as women in Christ. We hope to see you there!

Join IN tonight at 7pm at the Schlieder Home

The Foundation of Our Life Together

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST

This past Sunday, we began a sermon series on church membership. 5 weeks of asking and answering the questions: “What makes us who we are?” and “What’s it like to be us?” The most important thing that shapes who we are is what we believe. The heart of what we believe is the gospel of Jesus Christ. This is the foundation of our life together in the household of God that is Cross of Grace Church.

Earnestly Desire the Spiritual Gifts

GIFTS TO EACH FOR THE GOOD OF ALL

Pursuing the gifts of the Spirit is not optional to us. We need them to become all that Christ wants us to be. But far too often, our desires for them are not too strong but too weak. This is why God gives us 1 Cor 12:1-11. A passage meant to move us, change us, and stir our hearts to earnestly desire all the grace he has to give. Listen to Sunday’s sermon to be energized in your pursuit of the spiritual gifts.
