Our Adults Enjoy a Spirit-Life Service Each Wednesday Night.
This Wednesday night Barry Pierce will be ministering to us and sharing some prophetic words that the Lord has been stirring in his heart and we look forward to having a time of prophetic ministry
following what Barry shares. Our Wednesday evenings are a great time to get to know people better and to step in a little deeper into the flow of the Holy Spirit.
Barry, Serena, and Carter are faithful members of the Grace House family driving one hour each week
from Waynesboro, TN to be with us. Barry has gone through some very difficult physical and spiritual battles in the past two years from which he has emerged with victory and insight into the ways of God. You will be blessed by hearing this dear brother's heart. I'm very proud of Barry and how God is working in his life.

This is a great time to get connected....
We are so grateful for the togetherness that our life groups are enjoying.
Our Life Groups Ministry is touching lives. I rejoice to hear about how our groups are praying for one another, ministering the Word to one another, going places together, building deep relationships. This is an important part of the family life of belonging to a local congregation.
If you have questions about
being in a group or leading a group, just get with Hillard and Charlotte Matthews who lead our Life Groups ministry.
You are now able to view all the options on our new Life Groups website at LIFEGROUPS.INFO Please check it out!
Thank you for supporting the ministries of Grace House
Thanks for your gifts and thanks to Sandra Harper and those who assist her in the wonderful job they do with our financial record keeping. These will be available in the commons area as soon as they are available.
UPCOMING EVENTS AT GRACE HOUSE
Sunday, Feb. 2nd
I LOVE TO TELL THE STORY is being released in a few weeks. This is the book that chronicles the journey of Jim and Anne Bevis' life and ministry. We are in a for a wonderful enriching time together on the first Sunday in
February. You will be amazed at the stories, testimonies and life lessons that you will hear. I am excited and looking forward to interviewing Jim and Anne. From standing in the Concentration Camp at Dauchau to the Taja Mahal in India to Africa and beyond this couple has traveled. Did you know Jim has smuggled Bibles into China and ministered in Siberia? Among many other adventures, he has received death threats as a minister, almost drowned in the China sea, and thrown off a train at the
Hungarian border. As a minister, he shares about two periods of burnout and the trials that ensued as a result. .And on a more humorous note, Jim has been "French Fried" in Clearwater Beach, shot by a pork chop (you read that right), and somehow ended up with garlic bread for communion on one occasion. Did you know Anne once sang on the Ed Sullivan show and Jim was put on "trial" in college for his beliefs? These are just a few of the highlights of their story.
After the service you will have the opportunity to obtain a copy of Jim's new book and have them sign it for you.
I know that this special service will be a time of great encouragement to all who come and you will leave with a deeper appreciation for Jim and Anne and others who have served as forerunners in the Kingdom. Please plan to come and be in
prayer for this service scheduled for the first Sunday in February.
A NEW SERIES
SUNDAY - FEB. 9, 16, AND 23
Jesus said, "My sheep hear my voice," So there you have it. Jesus clearly taught that his followers have the ability to hear his voice. How does God speak to us? I am excited to teach on hearing God's voice. We will learn together several different ways God speaks to us. Topics like the Bible, the Spirit, spiritual gifts, dreams and visions and more will be a part of what we explore
God's together in this important and life-changing subject. Knowing what God has already spoken and the ways He continues to speak is instrumental to our growth in Christ and being able to discern God's will and direction for us in times of decision. You will hear powerful stories of how a word from God changed the entire direction of one man's life and his entire family, how a dream rescued someone from certain death, how a prompting of the Holy Spirit enabled a woman to receive a miracle she
had prayed for over 40 years, and many other such testimonies. This is the series that will help you to be better equipped to hear the voice of God. Please make preparations to be with us during this fascinating study.
Remember our new start time for our Sunday morning worship service is:
We will have breakfast at our breakfast bar around 9:00 a.m. Thanks to all of you who serve as our greeters and who prepare things on Sunday morning for our breakfast. And....thank you all for being part of our Grace House family.
