This week, the message was brought by Gilbert Sebenste, one of the deacons at Grace. He shares how true believers will demonstrate love by serving others. He wants the disclaimer added that he jumbled the order in one of the Scriptures he shared. But it didn't alter the meaning or the message of the passage.
