Good News needs no defense! 🙌 #TheGospelOfJesusChrist #Godislove #graceupongrace
Brethren, Church History is OUR History! ——————————————————- Exerpted from Our Church Speaks: “The glory of God is a human being fully alive; and to be alive consists in beholding God.” - Irenaeus of Lyons (130-202), Bishop of Lyons and Teacher of the Faith Irenaeus is a critical link between the apostolic church and the Christian theologians of the second and third centuries. As a boy, he studied under Polycarp, the disciple of the Apostle John. He completed further study in Rome and was appointed to serve as the bishop of Lyons. Lyons had proven to be a dangerous region for Christians and many believers had already suffered martyrdom, including Saint Blandina and her companions and the predecessor in Irenaeus’ office. As bishop, Irenaeus thoroughly defended the Christian faith from Gnostic teachers who sought to undermine scripture’s teachings on the nature of Christ. He is considered the first great theologian of the church, after the age of the Apostles. His works quote from 24 of the 27 New Testament books, demonstrating that the canonical New Testament Scriptures were a vital part of the Christian imagination, from the earliest years of the church. Irenaeus gave his life for Christ at the beginning of the 3rd century, martyred probably during the persecution of Emperor Septimius Severus. #irenaeus #irenaeusoflyons #churchfathers #patristics #ourchurchspeaks #churchhistory #artbybenlansing #bookofcommonprayer #saintquotes #saint
We need COMMUNITY! 🙌 Not a week goes by without at least two or three people sharing with me some variation of the statement, this grace journey is great...but lonely. And honestly, I get it. Ive felt it too. Content is WONDERFUL, but its no substitute for real, genuine, heartfelt COMMUNITY. Having had the courage to step out of the confines of legalistic, performance-driven religion, the isolation that often accompanies that can feel disorienting. BUT NOT ANYMORE!  GAN Plus is a new interactive membership community built around weekly LIVE events. It’s designed to create real connection, consistent spiritual growth, and a sense of belonging. What do I get with membership? ● Multiple weekly live teachings & Q&A with trusted speakers ● Weekly live prayer gatherings ● Round table conversations on timely topics ● Special virtual events throughout the year ● Full replay access to past live events ● Member-only community space GAN Plus isn’t just content.

Soon. Very soon. 🧐🙌 #GANPlus #puregrace #community #connection #fellowship
Derived from the Latin, ‘deservire,’ meaning to merit by service, and later the Middle English, ‘deserven’, which means to be entitled to something based on one’s actions, it’s not about what we ‘deserve’, for that word hinges on what we can produce or merit by our own effort. Seeing as we are inexhaustibly loved by Love himself, I’ll take ‘belovedness’ over ‘deserve’ any day of the week…and twice on Sundays. 😉 Jeremiah 31:3 1 John 4:7-21
