THIS SUNDAY:

Part 3: Doesn't the Bible Approve of Slavery?
Text: Matthew 20:26-28


Doesn’t the Bible approve of slavery?  This is always a sensitive topic, especially in the South.  When skeptics push against the Bible with this issue, they’re usually looking for a chapter and verse that says “slavery is evil.”  It’s not there. Instead, you see the patriarchs with slaves and Paul teaching slaves how to serve better. If you don’t know the history or context, it might appear as a biblical approval of slavery. But if you pay attention, you’ll see quickly that there is no possible way to treat others the way Jesus tells us to and support slavery at the same time. 


SAVE THE DATE!! VBS at Gray Methodist starts June 29th-July 2nd! Our VBS is open to the public for rising Pre-K to rising 6th graders! You can also use this same link to register to serve during VBS!

Nursery for babies/toddlers is provided for those who are serving during VBS. Again, these classes are not open to the public. You can register your little one using the link below.

We all have unique God-given gifts and Gray Methodist offers many ways you can use those gifts for His Glory! From welcoming new guests, communion, pouring love into our kids and youth, running the sound and live stream, to making coffee for our guest and members. When you serve, you give God a chance to work in you and through you. If you're ready, click the link below and take that next step today!

For even the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve...
