City of Grace 

Central Church is nestled right in the heart of Las Vegas, Nevada—a place commonly referred to as “Sin City.” Everyday, we hear stories from people who walk through our doors feeling ashamed, broken, addicted, and hurt. God’s grace completely transforms their lives, which leads them to walk in freedom. Jesus is truly doing a great work and turning our city into a City of Grace. 

It may be easy to hear stories of other people’s life change and think,“That’s great for them, but I’ve hurt too many people and made too many bad choices.” Maybe you think that God could never love, forgive, or accept you, and you’re confident that you’re not worthy of His grace. You might even feel like you’re beyond the limit of His grace. Nothing could be further from the truth. Read the lyrics of this song, and hear God’s heart for you:

Oh, come to the table
He knows you by name 
There’s no condemnation 
No judgement or shame 
His arms are wide open
Our God made a way
And yes, it’s okay here
To not be okay

How incredible is that? God knows us by name, and He doesn’t condemn us. He made a way by sending Jesus to die for us when we were still sinners. There’s no judgement or shame, and His arms are wide open. God’s beautiful gift of grace is for us, and His love goes beyond our imagination. Because of that, we’re given the opportunity to say goodbye to our old life, and invited to experience a new one where we’re...

No longer ashamed but loved. 
No longer broken but redeemed. 
No longer addicted but set free.
No longer hurt but healed. 

Grace not only covers our past, but it gives us the strength to walk in the purpose God has for our future. He’s calling us to step out of what used to hold us back, and trust that His grace is truly adequate and will never run out. There’s enough grace for everyone. And that’s what makes it so amazing.
