In week eight of The Consecrated Life, Pastor Josh teaches on Offer: what it means to bring God a costly, joy-filled offering that honors Him, shapes our hearts, and prepares us for what’s next. From Cain & Abel to King David’s altar and the temple offerings in Chronicles, we see that God isn’t after leftovers—He’s worthy of our best.

Pastor Mark Driscoll from Trinity Church joins Grace City Church for a powerful “family meeting,” connecting the church’s Sacred Assembly season to Ezra & Nehemiah and calling for a continued rhythm of prayer, planning, fasting, and faith for favor. With twelve key words, he unpacks spiritual warfare as a battle for family, freedom, and the lordship of Jesus, and explains how God builds and then fills—first with His presence, then with new sons and daughters who will meet Christ. This message will strengthen your conviction, deepen your worship, and help you recognize what it means to gather as a sacred assembly in a thin place where heaven comes near.
