Pastor Andrew taught part two of his series "A Grace City." In part two, "What We Want To Hand Down," he teaches on Grace City's values regarding leading a church that spans all generations. At Grace City, generational ministry is a central focus—raising up a legacy of faith that spans across ages and seasons.
However, this mission can be challenged by five key issues:
• Inconsistency in God’s House – When attendance and engagement with the church community are inconsistent, it sends mixed signals to the next generation about the value of God’s presence and people.
• Repeated Patterns of Sin – Without intentional discipleship and accountability, unhealthy cycles can persist, becoming normalized within families and communities.
• Uncommunicated Devotion – Private faith that is never expressed or explained to the next generation can lead to spiritual confusion or indifference.
• Unbiblical Traditions – Customs that lack scriptural foundation can overshadow true biblical teaching and misguide younger believers.
• Ungracious Responses – A lack of grace in correction, communication, or leadership can push people away instead of drawing them closer to Christ.
To truly build a church that ministers generationally, Grace City must confront these barriers with truth, grace, and intentionality—so that faith doesn’t just survive, but thrives through every generation.
