Grace Hill Church - Collierville, TNAuthor: Weekly Teaching from Grace Hill Church
WE ARE BECOMING A COMMUNITY OF GRACE AND PEACE FOR THE GOOD OF OUR CITY AND THE FAME OF JESUS. Our vision was born out of an angst. We find ourselves in a unique cultural moment in the west. John Mark Comer, a pastor, and writer from Portland, OR, says this: While 49% of millennials and 65% of American adults as a whole still identify as Christian in national surveys, a recent in-depth analysis by the Barna Group, a Christian Think Tank, put the number of young adults who are resilient disciples at 10%. Christians in the West are now considered what sociologists call a cognitive minority. Meaning our worldview and value system are at sharp odds with the culture around us. So how do we respond to that? One way to respond to this is to point the finger out at the world and blame culture, blame society and blame others. Or, we can take an honest evaluation of the church in the west, our local churches and see where we have failed, have conversations with a few of the 90% of young adults who are not considered resilient disciples, learn from them, learn from our mistakes, and see where we might have opportunities to recapture imagination for what the church should be. We believe the better solution is the latter. That is what has led us to our vision. becoming a community of grace and peace for the good of our city and the fame of Jesus. We meet at the Malco in Collierville, TN, every Sunday at 9:30am. To learn more, visit us at gracehill901.com.

Immanuel: Isaiah 7:10–16- “God With Us…Even When We Won’t Ask” (Love)
Episode 371
Sunday, 18 January, 2026
Advent is a season of waiting, longing, and hope. In this Advent series, we slow down and tell the truth about the world as it is, fractured, weary, and aching for peace, while holding onto the deeper promise of the world God is bringing into being. Walking through key passages from Isaiah and the story of Jesus, these messages explore what it means to trust God’s presence when it feels hidden, to hope when circumstances feel broken, and to believe that God is still at work even when renewal seems impossible. Advent reminds us that God does not wait for ideal conditions to act. He comes near, enters the ache we live with, and grows peace in places that look too broken to restore.
