Grace Students Presenting Students Mature in Christ Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ. - Col 1:28 Maturity in Christ means Christlikeness. We value Christlikeness in all areas of life which we've summed up in four words: ​ Humility : "It's not about me." We are dedicated to teaching students to deny themselves, pick up their cross daily, and follow Jesus. (Philippians 2:1-11) Hospitality : "It's about them." We are dedicated to teaching students to behave in such a way that every stranger can be treated like a neighbor. (Luke 10:25-37) Love: "It's about 'us'." We are dedicated to teaching students to think with a "we first" mentality, not a "me first" mentality. To participate in youth group and to encourage others before trying to be encouraged themselves. (John 13:34) Devotion: "It's about Him." We are dedicated to teaching students not merely about God, but to know God and how to seek Him out for the rest of their lives. Our goal is not to just give information about God, but to build lifelong disciples.

Sunday Discipleship Communities New Communities Coming this Fall Classes run September 11 through October 23 and meet at 9:50 am. Pre-Register Below by September 4. Becoming Faithful and Fruitful – The book of James encourages us to pursue faithful and fruitful lives as we embrace Godly wisdom and obedience. This study will involve a chapter-by-chapter study of James while blending some of the key teachings of this book within the context of the spiritual fruit identified in Galatians 5. ​ Teacher: Rod Toro and Ric Kinne ​ ​ Five Alive – Five Alive is designed to examine the first five chapters of John’s Gospel with the purpose of discovering some key elements related to God’s pursuit of us and our proper response to Him. The “bookend” weeks (weeks 1 and 7) will contain an introduction and a drive to application respectively, with the middle five weeks focusing on the contents of chapters 1-5. Teacher: Chris Lentz ​ ​ ​ Our Joyful Victory in Christ – Paul’s epistle to the church at Philippi, which was penned in 61 AD during his house arrest in Rome, included one of the most personal written interactions among the 13 letters he wrote to churches and individuals. Paul encouraged the believers at Philippi to embrace unity and humility and to pursue spiritual growth, joy and peace through their union with Christ and one another. This class is designed to draw attention to what it means to authentically pursue a Christ exalted life. Teacher: Frank McEachron ​ That Was Then, This Is Now – This class will strategically work through the first eleven chapters of Genesis to paint a historical picture that connects with our current cultural realities. A key emphasis of this class will include how the events that occurred in Genesis 1-11 have shaped foundational thoughts and behaviors within our culture today, and how believers can position themselves to effectively respond.

Lee Whitworth Biblical Ministries Worldwide​ Phone: 770-339-3500​ Email: srygh@biblicalministries.org​ Facebook Page Address: Biblical Ministries Worldwide 1595 Herrington Rd Lawrenceville, GA 30043-5616 Birthday: June 4 Mission Focus Lee serves with Biblical Ministries Worldwide sharing the gospel in Mormon communities in Utah. For many years, Lee served as pastor of Payson Bible Church and more recently as the Field Leader for the Utah/Idaho region. Currently his ministry also includes working on field policies, recruiting ministry leaders, preaching, and writing. His wife and ministry partner, Diana, passed in January 2022 and Lee is adjusting to ministry without her wisdom and communication. We praise God for Lee’s strong faith and his commitment to continue ministry. Pray for Lee and his eight adult children as the family continues to adjust to life without Diana. Testimony Lee's Testimony As a child my parents took us to a liberal church. My older brother grew restless and sought out a Bible-teaching church. At the age of nine I heard the gospel and approached the pastor about being saved. By God's grace He has held me through days of obedience and rebellion, complacency and devotion. I have been given grace and blessings entirely out of proportion to my sin and dullness. I studied music at Grand Rapids School of the Bible & Music with primary focus on Bible. I have served in churches in Missouri, California, and Utah. Diana and I were married in 1983 and have eight children. Update: ​Diana Jean Whitworth entered the joy set before her on January 8, 2022, after a three-year battle with pancreatic cancer. Please join Grace Community Chapel in praying for Diana's family during this difficult time. The family asks that instead of flowers, charitable gifts would be designated to Provo Bible Church for the church's evangelistic outreach ministry.

Personal Discipleship Where to Begin The process involved in achieving spiritual growth as a Christian can perhaps be accurately described through a simple phrase that is joined with the idea of Me Becoming More Like Jesus . Advancing spiritually in the direction of becoming more conformed to the image of Jesus involves an act of God’s grace that is aimed at our transformation in alignment with His purposes. However, this act of grace is also intended to function in coordination with our will and determined efforts as we engage in a life of surrender and consistent practices that are designed to further the cause of Christ in our lives. These practices are commonly referred to as spiritual disciplines . ​ ​ It may be helpful to consider spiritual disciplines in the context of athletes preparing for the Olympics. These individuals engage in consistent and determined training for many years so that they can be prepared to compete and win in their chosen events. If they fail to prepare properly, it is very likely that they will perform below the level of their hopes and expectations. As Christians, if our win involves increasing conformity to the image of Jesus, there are clearly things we must earnestly practice to achieve that goal. Common Spiritual Disciplines There are very exhaustive lists of spiritual disciplines that have been developed over time. While most of these lists have merit, they can also feel a bit overwhelming to many people as they try to imagine engaging in the breadth of these activities. So, for the purpose of challenging those within our church family to consider a more narrowly focused approach to the practice of spiritual disciplines, we have provided a prioritized list of the disciplines that are most commonly practiced.

Adult Discipleship Grace Discipleship Network ...that we may present everyone mature in Christ. - Col 1:28 At Grace Community Chapel, it is our conviction that discipleship engagement is essential to achieving a growing relationship with Jesus. With this in mind, we offer a network of mutually reinforcing discipleship opportunities that are specifically dedicated to advancing spiritual growth in the context of church community and individual commitment. Our Strategy DISCIPLESHIP THE PERSON Follows - Participates - Grows - Multiplies "...follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men." (Matthew 4:19) DISCIPLESHIP THE PROCESS Me Becoming More Like Jesus "...whoever says he abides in Him ought to walk in the same way in which He walked." (1 John 2:6) DISCIPLESHIP THE PRIORITIES Beginnings - Fundamentals Bible - Foundation Beliefs - Framework ​Behaviors - Formation "T herefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock." (Matthew 7:24) The Pathways Corporate Discipleship Communities: Sunday worship provides a discipleship opportunity where we gather corporately with our larger church family. When we gather, we worship through exaltation in song and teaching of God's Word . JOIN US: Traditional Worship: 8:30 am Contemporary Worship 9:50 or 11:15 am Learn More Sunday Discipleship Communities: Sunday classes gather in discipleship communities for the purposes of instruction and participative learning. Organized in a semester/quarter arrangement, our classes emphasize these four broad categories: ​ Beginnings, Bible, Beliefs, and Behaviors. ​ Pre-registration is required for participation in some activities. Details and Registration Mid-Week Discipleship Communities: Midweek gatherings feature Bible and topical studies that occur on different days and through varied discipleship contexts related to size and approach. The primary focus is on learning through general instruction and interactive engagement. Pre-registration is required for participation in some activities. See What's Available Relational Discipleship Communities: GraceGroups represent our small group discipleship communities which meet on a variety of days/times, most often bi-weekly. Groups generally gather in homes or at the church and allow participants to experience the benefits of discipleship through study and relational community. Use the link below to let us know of your interest in joining a GraceGroup. Interested Personal Discipleship: The priority associated with personal devotion relates to individual believers accepting ownership for advancing their relationship with God through participating in spiritual disciplines such as Bible study, prayer, etc. The collective whole of church health and vitality rests in the commitment and growth of individuals in their pursuit of God. As such, we want to encourage and equip those within our church family to pursue spiritual growth through the avenue of personal devotion.
