Welcome to the official Podcast of GStudents, the 6th - 12th grade Student Ministry of Grace Church in Southern Pines, NC!
Statistics show that around only 3 out of every 10 students continue to walk with the Lord after they graduate high school. Why is this so? Many reasons to be “tossed up for debate.” But one thing we do know for sure is that students are asking the questions of: Where do I belong? Who am I? And What’s my purpose? And the answers to these questions dramatically make this statistic become more true or false. SO…
We exist to see and hear 10 out of every 10 students experience revival in their hearts for the renewal of 10 cities. This is the vision - fill the city with Jesus. We will fulfill this vision through our mission of raising a generation of sons and daughters with wholehearted devotion to Jesus Christ.
Join the conversation and listen for your next step!

Holding unforgiveness towards others is like drinking poison
and expecting the other person to die. There are examples in
scripture that highlight unforgiveness and others that
highlight forgiveness. Whether it is a debtor who refused to
forgive a debt owed, even after his larger debt was forgiven,
or religious zealots that demanded accountability for the sins
of others, the concept of forgiveness has been a struggle
throughout human history.
Scripture shows us that God blesses those who truly have the
heart of forgiveness. What, then, is the benefit of holding
onto bitterness, hatred, or the quest for vengeance? We are
called to “forgive those who trespass against us” AS we
request that God “forgive us our trespasses.” It would make
sense that, since God has already paid for our sins and
bought our forgiveness, we should be quick to offer
forgiveness to those that wrong us.
