Rev. Tom Shinkle kicks off a new sermon series at Grand View, "Narrow Road Rules." Jesus called his disciples then, and us today, to follow the narrow road that leads to life - not the wide road that leads to destruction. And, once on the road, there are rules, or expectations, that help us stay on track in following Jesus.

No Compromises
October 17, 2021 • Rev. Tom Shinkle • Matthew 9:35–38, 2 Timothy 4:1–5
In week 6 of "Narrow Road Rules," Rev. Tom talks about the importance of having integrity in your life - especially in your faith life and your witness in the world. If you believe that the church and sharing the good news of Jesus is the only hope for the world, how can you change, compromise, or edit His truth? It's time that we as Christian - not back down - but instead share the hope with integrity.
Practicing Gratitude
October 10, 2021 • Rev. Tom Shinkle • Luke 19:1–10, Colossians 2:6–12
How would life look differently if we started to give thanks for the things we have instead of lament the things we don't have? How could we as Christians change the attitude in the world by being more methodical and intentional on giving thanks to God and to the people around us? Rev. Tom Shinkle looks at these questions and more in week 5 of "Narrow Road Rules"
Road Rule: Courtesy
October 3, 2021 • Rev. Tom Shinkle • Titus 3:1–11, Matthew 7:13–23
Rev. Tom Shinkle continues looking at the characteristics and attitudes found by Jesus followers that walk along the narrow path of life. This week, what does it mean to be courteous to one another?And, what does living courteously have to do with following Jesus? Jesus reminded us that we are to produce fruit - patience, peace, love - perhaps all included in courtesy.
