As we continue the Vision and Mission series, we are discussing the second facet of what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. The first aspect of a disciple is to ‘strengthen yourself in the LORD,’ and the second is to ‘manage your household.’ To manage your household means to be present and active in your personal relationships, seeking their good over your own. The picture we get of a well-managed home goes all the way back to Eden in Genesis. Eden was a place where humans were immersed in God’s Presence, where life was cultivated and multiplied. This same picture is given in today’s home, so we can manage our own greenhouses. Greenhouses have gardens, where each represents individual relationships to maintain and tend the soil. The nutrients in each garden require us to maintain healthy levels of water, fertilizer, seeds, air, and light. The climate of our homes shapes the conditions in our cities.

We are all together in one family, united in the vision to fill your city with Jesus and live out the mission of empowering the willing to come fully alive for the renewal of our cities. In this Holy Transition that is taking us from crowds to commissioned, pregnant to birthing, and acquaintances to intimates, we see what happens in heaven and earth when the church comes together. We are being called out of apathy into purpose, out of confusion into wisdom, and out of passivity into responsibility. This week, we are looking more deeply into the life of a disciple, a learner of Jesus. A disciple is someone who ‘strengthens themselves in the LORD,’ ‘manages their household,’ and takes up the call to ‘fill their city.’ We will examine the spiritual gym — the place where we train our faith — learning to use the right equipment and the right technique so we grow strong in God, not for ourselves, but to serve, lead, and see cities renewed.

In week three of our Vision and Mission series, we’re focusing on our call to make disciples. While this is the Great Commission for the global Church, we carry a unique assignment at Grace Church that will result in seeing more than ten cities filled with Jesus and renewed.

Our mission is this: We empower the willing to come fully alive in God’s presence for the renewal of our cities. As we live in His presence, discover our identity, and carry revival into our cities, we begin to see renewal unfold. Gideon lived this in Judges 6–8 — stepping into his calling and seeing a nation restored. What you do now matters

We are entering week two of our Vision and Mission series, where we are exploring the realities of our future, today. This week, we are looking at the identity and function of the Church. As we examine the story of Gideon in Judges 6-8, we find a small remnant of 300 people who form an army that defeats their enemies, numbering 135,000, in a decisive yet unorthodox victory. This is the picture of the Church: we are at war against the principalities and rulers of this world, not with human weapons but with those that dismantle strongholds. When we get together, a small group can see a massive multiplication effect in our cities because there is little that can stop the Church. It’s only the absence of godly men and women that allows evil to triumph. The Church is a force to be reckoned with when we come to a full understanding of our true identity, built on revelation and formed to heal, prosper, and build cities. Don’t forget that God’s chosen instrument of revival is the Church; every move of God in history has been in and through the Church. Let’s gather!

We’re kicking off the new year with our vision and mission series from January through February. As we take the time to know and clarify where we are, where we’re going, and how we plan on arriving there, it will take all of our family to accomplish the audacious promises God has given us. We are in preparation for war, a time where God is calling us to know that the weapons of our warfare are not flesh and carnal but powerful promises and Truths that break down strongholds of the enemy. We are living in a time when it is easy to see a drift toward a complacent and apathetic lifestyle. But God is calling those willing to take up their commission to go deeper in their relationship with God, becoming intimate and birthing something we have been carrying. As we read through the story of Gideon and his army, there is a strong correlation to us at Grace in this season of Holy Transition God has us in.

The baptism of the Holy Spirit and fire is not a spiritual accessory designed for charismatic circles; it is God’s appointed means of empowering His people to live and witness beyond human ability. Jesus Himself did not begin His ministry without the Spirit, showing that mission without power is incomplete. Through the baptism of the Holy Spirit, believers receive deeper intimacy with God, boldness for witness, victory over the flesh, strength in prayer, and spiritual gifts to build the Church. This gift is promised by God, but it is received by those who hunger, ask, and depend fully on Him rather than themselves. The true question is not whether the Spirit is able, but whether we desire Him above all else.

God has always had a plan of redemption for us through Christ. We need only to have faith in the grace extended to us through the Cross and submit to a loving Father who empowers us by the Holy Spirit to not be focused on the temporary but instead the eternal. Are you distracted by the cares of this world, or are your affections on things above?
