In the Nick of Time is a weekly essay edited by Dr. Kevin Bauder, Research Professor of Historical and Systematic Theology at Central Baptist Theological Seminary of Plymouth Minnesota. Dr. Bauder’s essays are geared toward guiding Christians (especially Christian leaders) through the process of thinking Biblically about life’s important issues. While Grace Baptist Church does not necessarily endorse or agree with every opinion expressed in The Nick of Time, we would encourage you to subscribe to the weekly e-mails.
About the Nick of Time
Occasional Essays and Other Stuff for Christian Students Presented by the Research Professor of Systematic Theology of Central Baptist Theological Seminary of Minneapolis.
“American Christianity needs leaders. American Christianity needs Christian leaders. Christian leaders explain the Scriptures, bringing them to bear upon life’s urgent questions. Christian leaders exemplify the life of faith, finding their ultimate satisfaction in God alone. They unite intellectual discipline with ordinate affection, turning their entire being toward the love of God. These essays are dedicated to the task of inviting Christian students to become tomorrow’s Christian leaders.”
—Kevin T. Bauder
“…Be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.”

We are beginning our spring women’s Bible study on Tuesday, April 2. The ladies will be going through a study in the book of Psalms called Stepping Up: A Journey Through the Psalms of Ascent.
- Time: 7:00 PM on Tuesday evenings
- Location: The home of Linda Hoogendyk
- More Information: Call Linda at 625-1010
Description:
Stepping Up: A Journey Through the Psalms of Ascent – Member Book by Beth Moore provides a personal study experience five days a week plus viewer guides for the group video sessions of this in-depth women’s Bible study of Psalms 120-134. Traveling pilgrims sang these psalms both on the way to the great festivals of the LORD and as key elements of the worship at those festivals. Just as a song or poem can express feelings of fear, doubt, hope, and joy, these 15 psalms model how we can voice our own petitions and praises to our God, who is always available and ready to hear us.
Explore the major feasts of Israel and journey with Beth through this 7-session study. Themes of unity, joy, gratitude, redemption, repentance, the power of blessings, facing ridicule, and more are explored in detail. Modern-day believers in Jesus Christ can learn much from these treasured Psalms in their journey toward greater intimacy with God.

Why Dinner for Six?
The purpose of “Dinner for Six” is to make new relationships, strengthen old ones, and connect on a deeper level in our Christian fellowship with one another.
How Does it Work?
Dinner for Six is tentatively scheduled for the months of March, April, and May. There will be 6 people in each group (couples or singles). One person will host and provide the main dish, someone will bring a salad, and someone else bring a dessert. Each month the hosting family will change and the people who bring dessert and salad will also change. The church fellowship hall will possibly be available for use (please check on availability).
How Do We Sign Up?
Please give Linda Hoogendyk a call at 507-625-1010 if you are interested in participating.

The Couple’s Class at GBC is currently in the midst of an “attitude adjustment”. Truth be told, each of us struggle with having attitudes and perspectives that are not honoring to God. The saying “your attitude affects your altitude” has a lot of truth to it. It is amazing how our attitudes affect so much about life. Attitudes mater to God because they reveal where our hearts really are in relationship to Him and to those around us. The Couple’s Class meets at 9:30 am each Sunday Morning in the church fellowship hall. Anyone is welcome to attend. Below is a brief description of the class content.

What does God think about attitudes? This study uses examples from the Israelites’ journey out of Egypt to how attitudes can affect whether someone stays in the wilderness or enjoys the blessings of the Promised Land. There is hope for the attitudinally challenged. (11 sessions)
In this study, James MacDonald shows how you can lead others (and even yourself) out of attitudes God hates and into those He honors, from:
- complaining to thankfulness
- coveting to contentment
- critical to love
- doubting to full of faith
- rebellion to submission
