      <image:title>Introduction - Introduction</image:title>
      <image:caption>For the last 5 years, Joey Gonzalez has had the desire to one day move back to New York City and serve in pastoral ministry.   As you might already be aware of, Biblically-driven, theologically-sound, spiritually-healthy churches are hard to find within the 5 boroughs of New York City, especially in Manhattan.  Many of the churches in the City are either extremely liberal on the one end or have been indoctrinated by the charismatic movement on the other.  A true understanding and conviction of biblical shepherding (including faithful exposition) and membership is almost non-existent in most of Manhattan’s churches.  A ministry in the heart of the City, by God’s grace, will fill a void that has been created by the absence of sound churches. This void being filled could also have great reach to many nations as New York City is, in many ways, an international hub. After much prayer, consultation with leaders and the Lord’s providential confirmation, the elders of Grace Community Church in Jacksonville FL and Joey have come to the consensus that the time is right to begin planning for a church plant in New York City.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Core Group - What is a Core Group?</image:title>
      <image:caption>It has been observed that two kinds of people are interested in a church plant: 1) Those who are interested in joining the church once it is already established functioning as a church and 2) Those who are interested in the ground-level, hands-on participation in the joyful, painful, exciting, and sacrificial process of planting and establishing a church.  Both groups are interested in becoming members of the church but it is helpful to recognize the distinction.  While we desire a level of commitment from both groups the expectation will be necessarily greater for the core group.  The criteria for becoming a church member is not the same as the criteria for becoming part of the core group.  The expectations for the core group members will be greater, because we will be counting on this group during a very critical stage in the church’s development.   The following criteria are not mandated by Scripture but are an attempt to be honest with you about the kind of dedication we are looking for in the core group.  Sacrifice and flexibility will be the norm not the exception.  We will not immediately have the benefits of a larger established church and will need “all hands on deck” as this ministry takes shape.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Thank you for your interest in becoming part of the core group that will soon become Grace Bible Church NYC!  There is an excitement that comes along with being part of a new work but there are also many questions to answer and challenges to face.  As you and your family prayerfully consider partnering together with us, we want you to have an accurate picture of what a core group is and what church-planting looks like.  We want you to be well informed and help prepare you as much as we can for the great joys and the difficulties ahead. If would just like more information about Grace Bible Church NYC, please feel free to contact Joey Gonzalez at GraceBibleChurchNYC@gmail.com.</image:caption>

These ministries would include:  Worship  Children's ministry Sunday Bible Classes  Small groups/ Accountability groups  Men's ministry  Women's ministry  Outreach  Baptisms  Membership classes  Leadership training</image:caption>

      <image:title>Why NYC - Why New York City.</image:title>
      <image:caption>A ministry in the heart of the City, by God’s grace, will fill a void that has been created by the absence of many doctrinally sound churches. We hope to help fill this void by showing people the love of God through His word and by how we live. We pray this can lead to reaching many nations with the gospel, as New York City is in many ways an international hub. Our mission is to be a light in the City. Our aim is to be a church that is doctrinally sound and that operates according to a biblical philosophy of ministry. We strive to operate with a biblical understanding and conviction of caring for God’s people, a heart for discipleship and evangelism, and high view of membership. We hope this website will give you a good idea of what Grace Bible Church NYC is all about. If you’d like more information about GBCNYC, please feel free to contact Joey Gonzalez at GraceBibleChurchNYC@gmail.com.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Gatherings - Worship Service | Sunday, 11am</image:title>
      <image:caption>Our Sunday services are driven by a high view of God and the reality that we as Christians are called to gather together as His people. Our time is focused on the exaltation of Jesus Christ and the edification of His people. We desire that all who gather with us each week will come away with a greater understanding of the God of the Bible, who created all things and sustains all things. We hope that this greater understanding will lead to a life lived in worship to Him, and a love for Jesus that will be displayed in an obedience to His commands and a love for others. Our services include times of singing, prayer, Scripture reading, giving, and expository preaching.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Academy of Exegetical Theology - Our Purpose.</image:title>
      <image:caption>“To further equip the saints for the work of the ministry with intentional immersion in specific areas of doctrine through exegetical study.” “To further equip the saints for the work of the ministry…” This ministry cannot be separated from the call for every believer to be equipped for gospel ministry. This will never be meant to replace the normal means through which every believer is to be equipped within the local church (Ephesians 4:11-14). “with intentional immersion in specific areas of doctrine…” One of the benefits of this academy will be the immersive and pointed nature of the courses. This approach will stretch all who enroll but will benefit and broaden their understanding of doctrine immensely, with the aim of presenting themselves “as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God” (Romans 12:1). “through exegetical study.” This is truly the backbone of the academy. All of our doctrine and theology is to be derived exegetically. God has spoken through His written word, and it is “out of” the pages of Scripture we learn from (and about) God. We must never press our own ideas into Scripture (2 Timothy 3:16-17).</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Pray for wisdom for Joey as he works on the many details of this ministry and seeks counsel from other trusted men for direction. Pray for those who may be interested/considering enrolling, that the Lord would give them clarity as to if/when would be best for them to begin. Pray and consider whether you would like to enroll. The Lord knows if/when you should take any of these courses. Pray about how you can serve in this ministry. Potential service opportunities include administrative assistance, hospitality, event planning, and student care.</image:caption>
