Good News Family & Friends,
We announced some BIG NEWS this past Sunday... Good News Church GA will be meeting permanently at Elixir Brew Co. from now until we're able to move to our permanent space at Hillside (in October 2025, God willing).
This upcoming Sunday, we're kicking off a new 12-week series on the Apostle Paul's letter to the Galatians. For this week, feel free to read Galatians 1:1-10. It's a short book, so you may even want to read all six chapters to get a great perspective and context. To access Ray's encouraging message from this past Sunday, click here.

INSPIRATION
Verse of the Week
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." - 2 Corinthians 4:16-18
Quotes of the Week
“All the attacks that Satan hurls at us through the sins of others are not only powerless to harm us but are transformed into blessings along the way.” - Mrs. Charles E. Cowman (“Streams in the Desert,” August 13)

The verse that undergirds our vision is Galatians 5:5b, “The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.” We value people, community, relationships, prayer, and Bible reading. We also value being able to be yourself. We’re all struggling with something, so there’s no need to pretend that we have it all together.
