Join us this summer as we read and discuss When Your Adult Child Strays: Trading Heartache for Hope\, the newest book by Jim Burns. \nThis book speaks honestly to one of the most painful and often unspoken seasons of parenting—the questions\, the tension\, and the wondering if things will ever feel normal again. Rather than offering quick fixes\, Jim Burns provides practical guidance\, biblical encouragement\, and hope for moving forward with wisdom\, peace\, and grace. \nTogether\, we’ll explore how to: \n\nLower conflict and rebuild trust\nStay connected even through disagreement\nLet go of guilt and find peace again\nLove your child without compromising your convictions\n\nThis 9-chapter book (142 pages) also includes reflection and discussion questions for each chapter\, creating meaningful opportunities for conversation and encouragement. \nParticipants will purchase their own books. Available on Amazon. \nReading Schedule: \n\nJune: Chapters 1–3\nJuly: Chapters 4–6\nAugust: Chapters 7–9\n\nEven when a relationship feels fragile\, it is not beyond hope. We would love for you to join us this summer. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Our Family Worship Service is a special time where we encourage parents and grandparents in their role of helping the next generation follow Jesus\, while giving kids the chance to worship and grow right alongside the rest of the church. \nEach service is designed with families in mind\, including kid-friendly elements\, children’s sermon notes\, and simple resources to help you keep the conversation going at home during the week. Kids age 5 and under are welcome to stay in Children’s Ministry or join their families in the service. We also provide a designated family seating area and a nearby livestream room if you need a little extra space. \n2026–2027 Family Service Dates (10:45 a.m. only):\nSeptember 27 • October 25 • November 29 • December 27 • January 31 • February 28 • March 28 • April 25 • May 30[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Abide in my love… These things I have spoken to you\, that my joy may be in you\, and that your joy may be full.” -John 15:9-11 \nJoin us for a young adult retreat centered on one simple but life shaping theme: Enjoying Jesus. In a world that constantly competes for our attention and affections\, we want to slow down and fix our gaze on the beauty and sufficiency of Jesus Christ. Through Scripture\, worship\, and time together\, our prayer is that our hearts would be stirred afresh with love for Him. As we spend time with him\, we are asking the Holy Spirit to awaken a deeper delight in who Jesus is and what he has done. Come with spiritual hunger and expectation\, ready to see and savor the beauty of Jesus with fresh eyes. \nDate: October 9-10\, 2026\nLocation: Camp Copass (Denton)\nCost: $90/person (covers lodging and all meals – scholarships available)\n[/vc_column_text][nectar_cta btn_style=”basic” heading_tag=”p” link_type=”new_tab” button_color=”accent-color” text_color=”#FFFFFF” text_color_hover=”#000000″ button_border_thickness=”0px” alignment=”center” alignment_tablet=”default” alignment_phone=”default” display=”inline” display_tablet=”inherit” display_phone=”inherit” icon_family=”none” link_text=”REGISTER” url=”https://graceefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/341/responses/new” padding_top=”8″ padding_bottom=”8″ padding_left=”8″ padding_right=”8″ margin_top=”20″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
