Grace Thoughts with Tim Kelley
The Voice of Faith, Part 1
November 5, 2024
Tim Kelley, at the age of 18, surrendered his life and heart to Jesus Christ. After receiving his degree in Biblical Studies, he relocated to St. Petersburg, Florida. In July of 1989 he became the senior pastor of Grace Connection Church and launched a local radio broadcast called "Grace Thoughts", a daily radio program broadcast in the Tampa Bay region http://wtis1110.com/ and is now heard at www.oneplace.com. Pastor Kelley is now in his 33th year in public ministry here in the Tampa Bay area. He is an avid sports fan of the Boston Red Sox, New England Patriots, and the Boston Celtics. As you may have guessed, our pastor grew up in New England in the Plymouth Mass. area. Pastor Kelley's two greatest and heartfelt passions are teaching and preaching a clear gospel of God's grace and its impact in our daily lives, as well as his love and compassion for people (even if they are not New England Fans). Pastor Kelley has a Master's Degree in Biblical Studies and is currently pursuing a second Masters in Counseling, graduating in May 2013. He is happily married to his beautiful wife of 27 years, Peggy. They have one child at home, Sadie Lynne. Their beautiful daughter Hannah Grace, in February 2012, went home to be with the Lord, due to a firearm mishap after a church service. Pastor Kelley and Peggy have started the Hannah Grace Foundation in memory of their daughter, which raises funds for the housing, care and education of children and young adults, here locally in the Tampa Bay region, throughout America as well as the third world.

Often times life and its various seasons and nuances will bring us to a place of despair, spiritual weariness and a dreaded spiritual confusion. This is the background of Psalm 11. David, a young man, anointed by the prophet Samuel, was hiding in caves from the King of Israel, Saul. None of it made sense. Why would God send Samuel to anoint him future King of Israel, just to send him running and hiding in caves from the present King? Why?

The Glory of Grace will grow as we become more fully aware of the darkness of sin—our sin. The darker I see myself outside of Christ, the brighter the glow of Amazing Grace. A Much More Gospel believer sees himself with a much more purpose in life. They understand the sacredness of their call and their place in the kingdom of God.

Every problem of man - marriage problem, emotional problem, personality problem, poor childhood - will be healed in this life changing process. Because you are born again, you are given - realized or not realized - a new life with Christ.

The Christian walk, our life, indwelt by God's Holy Spirit and the momentum of our spiritual transformation is either accelerated or slowed by God's ability to reveal to us, and help us overcome spiritual walls we have built in our souls. The simple truth is this-deal with the wall, acknowledge its existence, or remain in misery.
