Solidify Your Spiritual Gains Series

Contributed by Scott Turansky on Jun 16, 2022

God has done some things in our own hearts. We need to solidify those things before we move to the next thing.

But in some churches single people have a hard time breaking in. You know, finding places to serve or participate or grow or connect. GraceWay has a lot ...read more

Spiritual Gifts - What Are Yours?

Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Aug 4, 2023

Spiritual Gifts are a biblical concept and a Fundamental Belief of our church, and yet most of us don’t know what our Spiritual Gifts are – to the peril of the body.

Spiritual Leadership: The Jethro Principle Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 12, 2022

Jethro gave Moses such helpful advice that not only did Moses apply this, he wrote it in Scripture. He must have been aware that this was a leadership principle that would help spiritual leaders in every generation that follows him. There would come different circumstances but timeless principles.

I had just finished the book summary, The E-Myth Revisited by Michael Gerber. Right away I could see the application of this book. Not for me, I saw that my son-in-law was working long hours and here in this book were principles for the entrepreneur that could help him rise up new employees that he ...read more

Spiritual Milk Or A Thanksgiving Feast Series

Contributed by Perry Fowler on Nov 16, 2023

On Thanksgiving day which do you prefer? Milk or a Thanksgiving feast? The writer of Hebrews has a candid conversation with those who were spiritually missing out on the best instead of Spiritual meat- they were on Spiritual milk. How do we do the opposite?
