Our Counseling Pastor and GBS Chaplain, Tim Howard, writes the following word on our new online bookstore: "We're very excited about our new way of offering resources to our church family! "With so many authors and books in the marketplace providing information and advice while claiming...
Hey everyone, We dove back into Luke yesterday morning, with Pastor Jordan back with us after 2 weeks away. It was great to have him back. We'll keep preaching through Luke from now until Easter, each Sunday looking at a day of Christ's "Passion Week" (which, as we heard from Jordan, comes from...

To be honest, I've usually avoided pushing a "Read the Bible in a Year" plan, mostly because I'm a pragmatist when it comes to this, knowing that one size does not fit all. We never want to make a spiritual discipline like Bible reading as an external evaluation of godliness (success is if I...
