Our central aim is to understand the gospel in all its fullness and apply the gospel to all of life: the grace of God toward us in Christ, the presence of God
with and through his people, and the movement of God to renew all things.

C A L L T O W O R S H I PIsaiah 55:1-3, 6-9
S O N G H O W R I C H A T R E A S U R E W E P O S S E S SHow rich a treasure we possess in Jesus Christ our LordHis blood our ransom and defense, his glory our rewardThe sum of all created things is worthless in compareFor our inheritance is Him whose praise angels declare
How free and costly was the love displayed upon the crossWhile we were dead in untold sin, the Sovereign purchased usThe will of God the Father demonstrated through the SonThe Spirit seals the greatest work: the work which Christ has done
How vast and measureless the flood of mercy unrestrainedThe penalty was paid in full, the spotless lamb was slainSalvation what a priceless gift, received by grace through faithWe stand in robes of righteousness, we stand in Jesus name
Yours is the Kingdom, and the power, and the glory … Amen
Salvation what a priceless gift, received by grace through faithWe stand in robes of righteousness, we stand in Jesus name
C O N F E S S I O N O F S I N Holy Father, you see us as we are, and know our inmost thoughts. We confess that we are unworthy of your gracious care. We forget that all life comes from you and that to you all life returns. We have not sought to do your will with our whole hearts. We have not lived as grateful children, nor have we loved as Christ loved us. Apart from you, we are nothing. Only your grace can sustain us. Lord, in your mercy, forgive us, heal us, and make us whole. Set us free from our sin, and restore us to the joy of your salvation now and forever. Amen..

What from Christ that soul can sever, bound by everlasting bands?Once in Him, in Him forever; thus the eternal covenant standsNone shall take Thee, from the strength of Israel’s hands
Heirs of God, joint-heirs with Jesus, long ere time its race begunTo His name eternal praises; O what wonders love has doneOne with Jesus, by eternal union oneOne with Jesus, by eternal union one
On such love, my soul, still ponder, love so great, so rich, so freeSay, while lost in holy wonder, why, O Lord, such love to me?Hallelujah, grace shall reignHallelujah, grace shall reign!Hallelujah, grace shall reign, eternally!
S O N G O G R E AT G O DO great God of highest heaven, occupy my lowly heartOwn it all and reign supreme, conquer every rebel powerLet no vice or sin remain that resists Your holy warYou have loved and purchased me, make me Yours forevermore
I was blinded by my sin, had no ears to hear Your voiceDid not know Your love within, had no taste for heaven’s joysThen Your Spirit gave me life, opened up Your Word to meThrough the gospel of Your Son, gave me endless hope and peace
Help me now to live a life that’s dependent on Your graceKeep my heart and guard my soul from the evils that I faceYou are worthy to be praised with my every thought and deedO great God of highest heaven, glorify Your Name through me
O great God of highest heaven, glorify Your Name through me3

P R O F E S S I O N O F FA I T H GOSPEL COALITION, PT 5We believe that from all eternity God determined in grace to save a great multitude of guilty sinners from every tribe and language and people and nation, and to this end foreknew them and chose them. We believe that God justifies and sanctifies those who by grace have faith in Jesus, and that he will one day glorify them—all to the praise of his glorious grace. In love, God commands and implores all people to repent and believe, having set his saving love on those he has chosen and having ordained Christ to be their Redeemer.

S O N G Y E T N OT I , B U T T H R O U G H C H R I S T I N M EWhat gift of grace is Jesus my redeemer, there is no more for heaven now to giveHe is my joy, my righteousness and freedomMy steadfast love, my deep and boundless peaceTo this I hold, my hope is only Jesus, for my life is wholly bound to hisOh how strange and divine I can sing: All is mine! Yet not I, but through Christ in me
The night is dark, but I am not forsaken, for by my side, the Savior He will stayI labour on in weakness and rejoicing, for in my need, His power is displayedTo this I hold, my Shepherd will defend me, through the deepest valley He will leadOh the night has been won, and I shall overcome! Yet not I, but through Christ in me
No fate I dread, I know I am forgiven, the future sure, the price it has been paidFor Jesus bled and suffered for my pardon, and He was raised to overthrow the graveTo this I hold, my sin has been defeated, Jesus now and ever is my pleaOh the chains are released, I can sing: I am free! Yet not I, but through Christ in me
With every breath, I long to follow Jesus, For he has said that he will bring me homeAnd day by day, I know He will renew me, until I stand with joy before the throneTo this I hold, my hope is only Jesus, all the glory evermore to HimWhen the race is complete still my lips shall repeat: Yet not I, but through Christ in me
S O N G H O W G R E AT T H O U A R TOh Lord my God, when I in awesome wonderConsider all the worlds Thy hands have madeI see the stars, I hear the rolling thunderThy power throughout he universe displayed
Then sings my soul, my Savior, God, to Thee! How great thou art! How great thou art!Then sings my soul, my Savior, God, to Thee! How great thou art! How great thou art!
And when I think that God, His son not sparing Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it inThat on the cross, my burden gladly bearing He bled and died to take away my sin
When Christ shall come with shout of acclamationTo reign on earth, what joy shall fill my heart!Then I shall bow with humble adorationAnd then proclaim, “My God, How great Thou art!”

Church is a family. A Gospel Community (GC) is a place where you can experience that reality. We extend grace, speak truth, deal with conflict, meet needs, and invite others in. Our groups meet throughout the week and across the city. You can message leaders directly or email [email protected] for help figuring out which GC would be a good fit for you.

Here is what is coming up in the life of our church …
PROVIDENCE RECOVERY | Every Thursday • 7:00-8:30pmMeeting virtually
Providence Recovery is a Christ-centered twelve-step program designed to help people point each other to Jesus for healing and provide fellowship and accountability in applying Christian principles and practices to every area of life. Recovery is geared towards anyone struggling with patterns of sinful behavior, whether “addictive” or not. Recovery is currently meeting virtually each week. You can view the Recovery page on our website for more details or email [email protected] with any questions you might have.
BAPTISM SERVICE
Our next baptism service will be Sunday, August 8th, immediately following our outdoor service. Baptism is a significant event in the life of the Christian because it is a sign and seal of our union with Jesus, initiation into God’s family, and cleansing from the guilt and defilement of sin. It is also a significant event in the life of the church as we celebrate together what God is doing in our community. If you are a Christian and have not been baptized or would like to learn more about baptism, please let us know by emailing Kendal -
