Josh McPherson

In this catalytic message, Pastor Josh McPherson announces an audacious new chapter for Grace City Church: an opportunity to secure and steward 50 acres as a “forward operating base” for the Family Capital of the World—and the long-range vision of launching Vector West University, a four-year Christian institution aimed at forming courageous leaders with sharp minds, warm hearts, and strong bodies. Teaching from 1 Samuel 14, Pastor Josh calls the church to faithful risk, unified action, and dependence on the Lord for supernatural breakthrough, then lays out key prayer “fleeces” and an invitation to keep gathering in worship as God brings revival momentum.Support the showThanks for listening!

Texas State Rep and pastor Nate Schatzline calls Grace City to consecration—a fully submitted life and dream that belongs to Jesus, not us. Through stories of family, political battles, and personal freedom, he argues that private holiness fuels public reformation, and that God is looking for believers willing to pay the cost, tear down “Asherah poles,” and say an unapologetic yes to His plans for Washington.Support the showThanks for listening!
