We are Grace City Church in Rome, Georgia.
We preach the Word of God unapologetically and seek to apply the truths of the gospel to our everyday lives. We build authentic relationships by doing real life together in community. And we call the men to step up and lead their families with intentionality, so that they, their wives, and their children can stand firm and thrive in the midst of cultural chaos and confusion.

Pastor John Lovell
Religious RUBBISH | Phil 3:1-11
The Apostle Paul performs a savage take-down of the inadequate and corrupt religious crowd in the early church era. He proudly proclaimed in the book of Philippians that all his former religious accolades and laws were rubbish compared to the joy of his new heart and his new life in Jesus Christ. Listen as Pastor John urges us to understand the distinction between religion and faith-based relationship, being well aware of the traps that the modern-day religious sect sets for authentic Christians. While the arrogant and hypocritical religious people narrowly define the legalistic, inflexible rules of the church, those in real relationship with Christ are practicing love, joy, grace, and forgiveness. Bearing the fruits of the Holy Spirit is the transforming outcome of a true believer's heart, as we know our righteousness comes only from Jesus Christ, our Savior.
Thanks for listening!
