Sermons

Why do you go to church week after week (or once a month)? What would you think if the Pastors looked you in the eyes and said, “Don’t go to church anymore!”Far too many of us go to church like we go to our favorite restaurant or store. Subconsciously, many of us come to church expecting to get something from it. Put another way, we come to church as consumers, thinking about how we can get the best possible spiritual or community experience for the lowest cost (time, money, comfort, etc).Over the next few weeks, we are going to ask you to think differently, we are going to ask you to consider “being” instead of “going”. We are going to ask you to understand and commit to be a member of the family of God, a member of the body of Christ, specifically to officially be a member of GracePointe Church.Unlike being a member of Planet Fitness or Costco, as a member of the church, you are committing to be a part of something bigger than yourself, to be interdependent, to serve and be served, and much more. Over the next few weeks, we hope you “Don’t Go to Church” but rather, explore what it means to be the church.
