Ask Dan Alicea..

Gasoline,

It is a former UPC church pastored by Brett Jones now. The Elder Jones died recently.

Since they left THE ARK they have been blessed greatly with rapid church growth / revival.

Have you found their website yet? They have a nice one and have a link where you can access webcasts of their services.

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

GO visit them! They're awesome people!

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

its Petrol...thanks...thank you so much for your sarcasm, I did find their Website and was blessed very much, which is why I asked the questions.

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

No sarcasm at all. It is a great church. I have not had a chance to visit it since they left the UPC but visited them many years ago.

I have friends close to that church and they speak very highly of it.

Why did you think I was being sarcastic?

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

cause of the whole "ark"comment...I'm sorry I took you the wrong way...

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

You are right CC1 is sarcastic, but not offensive. He has no axe to grind.

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

LOL!!! I many times refer to the UPC as "The Ark" based on a General Conference sermon I heard back when I was in Bible College. It was the late 1970's and either Kansas City or.....ah.....rats I forget the other place. Anyway a preacher preached a sermon where he likened the UPC to Noahs ark and the implication was that if you were not UPC you were not going to be saved. Even back then I found that pretty amazing and that was before I "went charismatic".

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

thanks for that I'm a little newer to this, its been a while...oh and thanks for your advice to talk to DA.

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

I don't even have a pocket knife to grind. I keep on losing them.:gaga

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

I recently "went charismatic" so to speak...

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

You are not losing them. The airport keeps taking it cause you can not fly with them you terrorist you.

Petrol, you will find there are more charasmatic here than what the first impression might give you. Welcome!

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Just guard your heart and spirit against bitterness. Sometimes it is a hard transition as many find out that people they thought were friends suddenly treat them as strangers or worse.

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Thank you...I've been here in the past and was here in the days of NFCF for a time...but its been a while...

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

my wife has had some interaction w/the pastor and his wife of the humble church recently and says they are good peoples.

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Great and wise words spoken from a wise guy. I mean a man that is wise..:friend

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

that hasn't happened to me, luckily I have have some great friends...if anything I've backed off a little...it was a hard transition and still is..

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Cool. I will be praying for you during this time. I think as long as folks are able to keep God the focus everything else works out and it sounds like you are doing this.

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Petrol, I have been in the transition for over a year myself. It ain't easy at times, but the truth is that as each day goes it gets easier. I do have great friends too. I hope I do not see what CC1 is talking about. I have seen in others lives, but not mine yet. I do know that there will come a day that my friends see that I am not coming back to the UPC and they might change their tune. But so far so good. Keep up the walking. As long as you are walking toward Him you will be taken care of.

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Thanks I appreciate it...its been improving so much lately...

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

its been about 6 months for me, its funny a girl I went to Bible School with was going through the same things as I was at the same time, we are both trying to be strong...not a lot of the people I went to school with know about this(I was done BC in 2003) and being a young minister I feel like there is no place to go but I have a great support system in the church I have been attending and feel as thought its the best place for me right now...

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

The UPC is also some times referred to as the Mother Ship.

And, some times the Scripture in Acts 27:31 is referenced and paraphrased as "Unless you stay in the Mother Ship you can't be saved."

When I think of that phrase I also think of a quote by the late Wynn T.Stairs. He had been a member of the PAJC and was the first foreign missionary director of the UPC after its formation in 1945. Bro. Stairs left the UPC in the 1970's and someone accused him of leaving the ship of salvation. He replied, "Ridiculous! We just left the toilet and went up on deck to get some fresh air."

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

I was student pastor at one of the churches Wynn T. Stairs founded. he seems like he was a great man!

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Hello,
I am a member of Grace Church. I just moved here in feb of this year. I love this church. Its unlike anything Ive ever experienced. I've been in church my entire life and Ive never known the love that is shown at this church. The preached word is a life application style of preaching. The worship and music ministry is amazing. There are two campuses. I attend the Humble campus. The other is the midtown campus.


Blessings

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

This may seem like an absurd question BUT what do they believe?

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

not much

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Oh good grief. They believe plenty.

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Why do I keep thinking Bro Trimble was from Humble, TX?

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Hmmmm...because it is almost midnight? Because he might have been?

Who is Bro. Trimble?

This Grace Church is an exUPC church pastored by Brett Jones and was previously pastored by his father. Did Bro. Trimble have something to do with it?

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Or was it Tribble? Long time forum member...

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

yes, he used to write on the forum.

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Grace Church is hosting Israel Houghtons Deeper Level Conference this week which includes a new live recording from Israel and New Breed. This is the 2nd year this event has been held.

I think Pastor Tribble was from Mississippi, wasn't he?

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Shock and Dismay

You have also left the ARK then. Hell's fire and damnation will surely fall upon us all.

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

I heard a message one time that one of The Jones preached at Pastor Rex Johnson's church.

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

You can hear that message here.http://about-him.com/sermonlink.html

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

Did I miss what they believe?

Re: Grace Church Of Humble...
 

If I can the website there is a statement of faith on it.
