Graceful: Living with Grace in Relationships

In a world that’s growing more gruff, more divided, and quick to cancel, we believe there’s a better way. It’s not weakness—it’s grace. And it’s more powerful than we realize.

This series is all about bringing grace into our everyday relationships. Because grace isn’t just a theological idea—it’s a way of living. A way of loving.

  • In our marriages, grace holds steady when love is tested.  

  • In our parenting, grace shapes hearts before correcting behavior.  

  • In honor, grace gives weight to the past while planting hope for the future.

  • In our friendships, grace speaks truth without letting go of love.  

And when it comes to rest, grace reminds us: peace isn’t earned—it’s received.

Please be our guest for Graceful - and discover how God wants us to live with grace in our relationships.


We as a faith family and community are called to join with the graduating seniors and their families to celebrate past accomplishments while extending encouragement for future goals and dreams!

Bara Church is thrilled to host our 13th Annual FREE Summer Rec —

and it's going to be bigger and better than ever!

Summer Rec is all about non-stop fun — from action-packed sports and wild relays to hilarious games and just the right amount of friendly competition. 🏃‍♂️🏀😄

But it's more than just fun — we’ll also take time to break into smaller groups to talk about life, joy, and Jesus in a meaningful and relaxed setting.

  • “Despite relocating after initially attending services in person, Bara continues to be a cherished part of my spiritual journey through its online platform. The warm embrace of the community, Pastor Joel’s impactful messages, and the numerous avenues for involvement and service have left a lasting impression. Bara not only fosters a sense of belonging but also facilitates meaningful connections that transcend physical boundaries. It’s a testament to the church’s dedication to spreading Christ’s love making everyone feel at home, regardless of their location.”

  • Bara is everything we have prayed for in a church. There is a real sense of connection there. Pastor Joel and Kim have been supportive of my past ministries and welcomed them to Bara. My husband is a part of the worship team and loves it. So there are many opportunities to get involved and serve. We love Bara and what they stand for!

    -Jennifer Todd

  • “Bara is a place that you feel seen and receive great Jesus teachings. They love the lord and their love is shown in actions. Bara Church is the real deal!”

    -Patricia Hornbaker

  • After my parent’s death we were sorting through items in their home and I pulled a bible study book off of a shelf. The following day I began reading it and after turning a few pages I saw that my Mother had written “Love 1 4 God” on top of a page. Loving one for God was a BARA Church theme from many years ago and my parents could only attend BARA the one time a year they would come and visit us. My Mother was so touched by the thought of Loving One Person For God that she felt compelled to write it in a study book. After I completed reading the book I decided that I needed to be back at BARA Church where a person can” Love 1 4 God” while also feeling God’s love through others.
