What to Expect
Finding good church can be stressful. Each church does things a little differently.
Here are some answers to common questions people ask when considering a visit to Grace
What should I Wear?
You’re welcomed to come as you are, whether it’s a suit and tie or shorts and a shirt. Whatever you feel most comfortable wearing. There is a little of both most Sundays.
We are far more concerned about your heart than your clothing. To learn more about why we aren’t all that concerned about your clothing, click HERE
What is the music like?
We do not limit style, but we are very careful to select music that combines old and new hymns and many psalms often set to a modern rhythm. The source and theology of our music is very important, and while we strive for excellence, our primary goal is not to entertain but to lead the congregation to sing together and loudly.

What is the preaching like?
The preaching is an expositional verse by verse walk through entire books of the Bible. Our main service begins at 11am and typically runs until around 12:30. For some this seems long, but it is rare that we have complaints.

What do my kids do?
We love having children in our worship services, but we know that many are not yet able. While we encourage our families to train their children from a young age to sit in church, we also try to be sensitive to varying family situations.
For that reason, we have childcare available for children up to age 7.

What Bible Version do you use?
The pastor typically preaches from the ESV or NKJV. Choosing a good Bible translation is important. Its also important to understand how the Bible came to us in English. Many good people are confused about this, and we want Gods people to be equipped to make a scholarly defense of the trustworthiness of Gods Word.

Do you do “Alter Calls”?
We Rarely do “Alter Calls”. While the Gospel is often presented, we lean heavily on the Holy Spirit to do the work or bringing people to repentance. This work will be accomplished no matter how many times we “Sing the last stanza of Just as I AM”.
