I was just thinking today about how our journey with God is an ongoing one. There really is no “neutral gear” on a spiritual life. The reality is we are sinners, out of alignment with God. When we become followers of Jesus, we receive His free gift of salvation and relationship with God, yet until heaven we live with this proclivity to sin. When left to ourselves we’ll find ourselves drifting back to sin. Whether they be sins of “commission” where we know what is right and yet do something other than it or sins of “omission” where we know the good we could do and refuse to do that.

As we continue in our series where our staff answer the question: why are you here at Grace right now? what excites you about our church? Pastor Chris Thomson shares his insight….

Allow me to share about yesterday, Sunday, August 23. Actually we need to back up to Saturday night, two awesome people (Christy & Jenny) from Grace offered to watch our 3 girls for us to go out Sunday night. Plus Saturday night we were able to see my friend Ryan Baitzel on TLC’s Moving Up show — it was so cool to see him — I really miss serving with him and it was great to see his sense of humor show up on television! ha
