Grace Falls Church

Introducing the shore to a Person not a religion.

At Grace Falls Church, we're a community of people whose lives are being transformed by the hope of Jesus Christ. Together, we're learning to live out the gospel every day and share His love with our neighbors throughout Atlantic County.

Every Sunday at 10:30 AM, we gather to worship, grow in God's Word, and encourage one another. We believe the church is more than a building—it's a family of people united by faith in Jesus.

Whether you've been following Christ for years, are exploring faith for the first time, or aren't sure what you believe, you'll find a welcoming, relaxed environment where you can ask questions, build relationships, and discover the hope found in Jesus.

Take the First Step

We'd love the opportunity to get to know you. Whether you'd like to visit on a Sunday, meet for coffee, or simply ask a few questions, we're here to help.

Join us this Sunday at 10:30 AM, or connect with us before you visit. We can't wait to meet you!

 

Do you need help? Can you help others?

 

More Than Religion

Many people have experienced Christianity as a religion, a tradition, or a set of rules. At Grace Falls Church, we want you to discover something different—the life-changing hope found in Jesus Christ.

His grace transforms our hearts, shapes how we love one another, and gives us a purpose bigger than ourselves. We gather as a family to grow in faith, serve our community, and share the hope of the gospel with the Jersey Shore and beyond.

Our vision is to see lives transformed, neighborhoods strengthened, and more people introduced to Jesus through communities that live out His love every day.

We'd love for you to be part of what God is doing at Grace Falls Church.

 
 

We Are Not Perfect

None of us has it all together. We're all growing, learning, and relying on God's grace every day. No matter your story, your questions, or your struggles, you'll find a place where you are welcomed, accepted, and loved.

We Love Dialogue

This is not a one way conversation. Our pastor does not have a monologue to disperse, you will find our conversation based Gatherings refreshing as we seek to learn from both God and from one another.

Diversity Is Good

We love and embrace diversity and it helps to make us a stronger community of believers. Your background, your culture and your experiences in life are not going to get in the way of us welcoming you into our family.

 

The Gospel - What It Means to Be a Christian

Being a Christian is more than identifying yourself with a particular religion or affirming a certain value system. Being a Christian means you have embraced what the Bible says about God, mankind, and salvation. Consider the following truths found in the Bible.

God Is Sovereign Creator

Contemporary thinking says man is the product of evolution. But the Bible says we were created by a personal God to love, serve, and enjoy endless fellowship with Him. The New Testament reveals it was Jesus Himself who created everything. Therefore, He also owns and rules everything. That means He has authority over our lives and we owe Him absolute allegiance, obedience, and worship.

(Psalm 103:19 / John 1:3 / Colossians 1:16)

God Is Holy

God is absolutely and perfectly holy; therefore He cannot commit or approve of evil. God requires holiness of us as well. First Peter 1:16 says, You shall be holy, for I am holy.

(Isaiah 6:3 / James 1:13)

Mankind Is Sinful

According to Scripture, everyone is guilty of sin: There is no man who does not sin. That doesn't mean we're incapable of performing acts of human kindness. But we're utterly incapable of understanding, loving, or pleasing God on our own.

(1 Kings 8:46 / Romans 3:10-12)

Sin Demands a Penalty

God's holiness and justice demand that all sin be punished by death. That's why simply changing our patterns of behavior can't solve our sin problem or eliminate its consequences.

(Ezekiel 18:4 / Romans 3:23)

Jesus Is Lord and Savior

Even though God's justice demands death for sin, His love has provided a Savior who paid the penalty and died for sinners. Christ's death satisfied the demands of God's justice, and Christ's perfect life satisfied the demands of God's holiness, thereby enabling Him to forgive and save those who place their faith in Him.

(Romans 3:26, 10:9 / 2 Corinthians 5:21 / 1 Peter 3:18)

The Character of Saving Faith

True faith is always accompanied by repentance from sin. Repentance is agreeing with God that you are sinful, confessing your sins to Him, and making a conscious choice to turn from sin, pursue Christ, and obey Him. It isn't enough to believe certain facts about Christ. Even Satan and his demons believe in the true God, but they don't love and obey Him. True saving faith always responds in obedience.

(Matthew 11:28-30 / Luke 13:3, 5 / John 17:3 / Ephesians 2:10 / 1 Thessalonians 1:9 / James 2:19 / 1 John 2:3).
