Hi everyone!

In a world that seems to change by the minute, I am reminded of the strength we have when we stand firm in our faith. The Apostle Paul’s words to the Corinthians still speak loudly today: “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.”

There are times when we are tempted to bend with the winds of culture, compromise under pressure, lean on our own understanding, or retreat in fear. But our calling as followers of Jesus is to remain anchored — not in our own strength, but in the unshakable promises of God, the words of the true King of Kings

I want to encourage you today: stand firm. Stand firm in your convictions. Stand firm in love. Stand firm in grace. And know that when you do, you are never standing alone. The Lord is with you, and your church family, the bride of Christ, is beside you.

If you’re facing something heavy this week, please reach out. We’re here to pray with you, encourage you, and help you stay grounded in God’s truth. Let’s keep lifting one another up and growing stronger together.

We are currently doing a series at Gracelife called NO KING BUT THE TRUE KING…and in this series, we are delving into these exact things. Why it’s important to stand firm, not in what this temporary world can offer, but in what the immortal One gives us by Grace!

This coming Sunday, 24 August at both the 8am and 9:30am meetings, we continue on with part 2 called “The failure of earthly kings”. Consider yourself invited!

Bless you

Craig
