Grace Community Church, Arlington, Va

Grace Community Church meets on Sundays at 9:30am and 11am in Arlington, VA and online at live.trygrace.org.

At the Movies is back--and this time, it’s super. From masked crusaders to unlikely champions, we’re bringing you a summer series packed with action, meaning, and movie magic. Each week, we’ll explore a superhero film and uncover the deeper biblical truths behind the capes-- truths about identity, redemption, and the kind of courage God calls us to live out.

We often think saying "yes" is loving, but sometimes the holiest, healthiest word we can speak is "No." This week, we'll talk about boundaries—why they're biblical, how they protect what matters most, and why your identity is key to keeping them.

We all know what it’s like to want to change — to become the person God is calling us to be — yet still feel stuck in old patterns. What if the missing piece isn’t just about trying harder, but about stepping into something deeper? Join us this Sunday as we explore an ancient but practical path to transformation, and discover how change might come from a place you didn’t expect.

Your words are powerful enough to make a point and to build people up. But, in a world full of noise, what if our greatest superpower isn’t volume, but grace and curiosity? This Sunday, we’re talking about how knowing the way we speak can change our relationships, but knowing the way people listen to us can change our lives. Maybe the apostle Paul, Ted Lasso, and Jesus have more in common than we expected.

It’s easy to speak well when life is easy. But what about when emotions run high? What about when someone pushes your buttons, misunderstands you, or hurts you? That’s where most of us lose our superpower — and that’s where God invites us to grow. In Ephesians 4, Paul gives us a roadmap for handling conflict with truth, love, and wisdom. This week is all about staying calm, clear, and connected — even when conversations get hard. Because real strength isn’t about winning arguments — it’s about winning connection.

This Sunday, Stacy Huston shares a message that honors the strength and tenderness of women while exploring how our words, especially the ones we don’t say, shape the lives of those around us. Rooted in Ephesians 4:29 and personal stories of motherhood, faith, and community, this talk is a reminder that encouragement isn’t just a nice gesture—it’s a lifeline. Come ready to reflect, laugh, and leave inspired to speak life into the people around you.

Everyone wants to be heard — but few know how to truly listen. Long before powerful words can change the world, a listening heart changes a life. Jesus modeled it. Paul taught it. The Bible has always said it starts with humility, patience, and love. Before you speak well, learn to listen well. It’s your secret superpower.

The words you speak—to others and to yourself—are not neutral. They’re shaping your relationships, your career, your faith, and even your brain. In this opening message, we’ll explore the surprising power of language, why your words matter more than you think, and how the Bible, science, and real-life wisdom all agree: change your words, and you really can change your life.

We’re surrounded by promises—quick fixes, big claims, life hacks—but so few things actually work. This Easter, we’ll explore a message that history, experience, and even God Himself confirmed with a cosmic, undeniable YES. If you're searching for something real—something that changes hearts, builds lasting influence, and actually works—come hear why Jesus’ resurrection isn’t just a sign… it's a sign worth trusting.

Which day in Jesus' life marked the beginning of his last days? While it might be hard to pinpoint, when you look at moments that moved things in that direction, they all have one thing in common. Join us this Sunday for the start of Holy Week with a Palm Sunday message about that very thing.

In a world where serving is often seen as weakness, we rarely stop to consider what it says about a God who chooses to serve. This week, we look at one of the most awkward and surprising moments in Jesus’ life—a moment that flips our assumptions about power, love, and leadership. Join us as we explore a story that might challenge you view of God… in all the best ways.

What can we learn from Jesus’ last days? In his suffering, service, and sacrificial death, we find the truth of who God is and who we are in Him. Join us for this three-week series as we reflect on the profound meaning of Jesus’ last days.

We all know the impact of being an outsider—socially, professionally, even spiritually. But what if the very thing that made you feel excluded was actually an invitation to something greater? This week, we’re diving into a powerful passage in Ephesians 3, where Paul reveals a radical truth that changes everything about who we are and where we stand with God. Join us as we uncover the mystery of belonging.

Ever feel like the world is one big social media feud? Jesus didn’t come to take sides—He came to make peace, and science backs Him up. You weren’t just saved FROM something—you were saved FOR something.”

In his commencement address at UC Berkeley, U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy referred to this force as "our greatest power." In this message titled "Saved By What?", we'll delve into the transformative force that one of America's leading scientists hails as our greatest power. Discover what this unparalleled force is and how it can profoundly impact your life.

From ancient scriptures to modern science, there's a recurring theme: we all need saving. But what's the real danger? In this sermon, we'll connect the dots between faith, facts, and our favorite stories to reveal the surprising answer. Don't miss this eye-opening journey into the question, "Saved from what?”

Sometimes, what we see isn’t the full story. Throughout history, people have built great towers and temples, believing they held the key to power and security—yet there was always something greater at work. In this message, Towers and Temples, we’ll explore what it means to have our eyes opened to what God is doing, even when it feels like we’re surrounded by forces beyond our control.

Ever tried to put together IKEA furniture without the instructions? That’s what happens when we misread the Bible. This Sunday, we’re diving into the key to unlocking Scripture’s true meaning—because when we follow the right guide, everything just clicks.

What if one passage in the Bible held the key to understanding God’s purpose for your life? This Sunday, we’ll explore a powerful truth in Ephesians that could reshape how you see yourself and your calling. Don’t miss the message, “Has God Chosen You?”
