Meet the GPC Staff
"For by the grace given me
I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than
you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in
accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you. 4 For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, 5 so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. 6 We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; 7 if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; 8 if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead,do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully." (Romans 12:3-8)
Here at GracePointe, we realize that we are not all the same; and that's okay. We also realize that God created each of us in very unique and different ways and, in that, He created us to be individuals. Therefore, much like the above passage from Romans states, "We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us." In light of these different gifts, we not only worship God with our time and treasure, but we also worship God uniquely with our talent. Below, you will find a highlighted account of our GracePointe team members and their various gifts according to the grace given to them.
If you would like to contact any of the GracePointe team members their work emails have been provided.
