Isn’t a church supposed to be where humble people come together in gratitude, to worship God, and love one another? Isn’t a place like GraceLife the last place that should be in conflict, where we look down on others in our church family? I’ve seen churches fracture over church growth strategy, worship style, liturgy, leadership, politics, even social-justice. Why do we get so angry? Don’t we all come from the same desperate place? Don’t we all follow Jesus? Let me be clear: this isn’t about defending the Gospel, that noble fight is our calling. But churches lose their focus! When a church forgets God’s sovereignty and God's grace, we all drift toward pride, entitlement, and division. We wander far away from the fight, the frontlines, back in the barracks, squabbling about the color of the paint. These are symptoms of arrogance, we’ve forgotten how overwhelming God’s grace is, how helpless we are without it. If you’re worn out by church drama or spiritual posturing, this sermon will unmask our hidden pride. The pure, sovereign grace of God that has saved us in such a way that it makes human pride a spiritual impossibility.
