We have curated 12 passages to memorize this year which are connected to our 2023 rallying cry, "We are humble before and joyful in Jesus!" Let's treasure God's word in our hearts each month.
January
James 4:10 – Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.
We are here to make disciples and plant churches by proclaiming and displaying the grace of God to sinners and sufferers. After seeking the Lord we’ve discerned our rallying cry for 2023 is not a new project or hill to charge, but a focus on being:
We are humble before & joyful in Jesus!
The road to how we got here is a long one. When you walk into Grace Church and see us with our five teenage boys, with a happy marriage, and the Aledo life it is hard to see where we came from.
We are thrilled to be a part of Grace Church and serve the children and families of Aledo. Our hope and prayer is to see families discipled and formed into the image of Christ so that the next generation of saints may know, trust, and love our good and gracious God.
In a world filled with sin, the flesh, and the Devil, assurance of salvation is the soft feather bed on which the Christian rests. Assurance proves to be one of the greatest benefits of the Christian faith and the rightful inheritance of the child of God. In its enjoyment is found peace, hope, and joy unsurpassed in this fallen world.
Everything we do in our gatherings and ministries has a purpose. We desire to honor, obey, worship, and delight in The Trinity in all we do. Maybe you have wondered why we do certain things, or have never thought about the role certain practices play. Below is a list of our regular practices, and why we do them.
Sex is like fire. When it blazes in the fireplace, a good fire warms and brightens the room, enhancing joy and companionship. But when fires ignite in the wrong places, the house burns down. Is your sexuality igniting in the wrong places? Are you treating sexual sin casually? How do you know when this has happened? Let me offer a few tests that can rouse your conscience.

James 4:10 – Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.
We are His workmanship, the wonderful Master made each of us! When we question our worth or feel unworthy, we can be reminded of the value that the Father has placed on each of us, his image-bearers. As his image-bearers, we have been created for and invited into his beautiful adventure. As his masterpieces, empowered by the Holy Spirit, we can be on mission where live, work, and play.
