Grace That Forms exists to help everyday disciples, and the church, be formed into the likeness of Jesus by the grace of God. Not by trying harder, but by grace that shapes a whole life.
About Matthew
I am Matthew, the vision pastor at Falcon Community Church in Falcon, Colorado, a community where people are finding Jesus, family, and purpose.
Grace That Forms grew out of a question. Like a lot of pastors, I was handed some excellent spiritual formation material and watched it help our people. But it came from another tradition, and I kept asking: what do we have?
We belong to the Church of the Nazarene, the largest Wesleyan-Holiness family in the world. If holiness by grace is the treasure entrusted to us, then surely we have something to offer the wider church’s hunger for formation.
That question became a calling. The Journey is my attempt to put the practices of following Jesus into our own tradition’s language, the language of grace, holiness, and a heart made whole. Not to compete with anyone, but to contribute what the holiness movement has always believed: that God does not merely forgive us, he transforms us. Formation is grace, doing its slow and certain work of making us like Christ. That conviction is the whole reason this site exists.
