Behind the Series: Jesus' Growth Plan for Me

Pastor Mike and Amber Albee Swenson give us a preview of September's new TV message series, "Jesus' Growth Plan for Me." While discussing Jesus' parables that this series is based on, we also learn of the "mustard seed moments" that changed both Mike's and Amber's lives (both involve their moms), what Amber has in common with Dwight Shrute, and that one time Amber tried calling out Jesus—only for Jesus to mic drop her.

Pastor Mike also talks about his new book this month, "Stories to Change Your Life." The book invites us to explore some of these eye-opening parables told by the greatest storyteller of all time, Jesus. Starting Sunday, you can request "Stories to Change Your Life" with your gift to the ministry at timeofgrace.org. 

What is Time of Grace With Pastor Mike Novotny?

Time of Grace exists to point people to what matters most: Jesus. Using a variety of media (television, radio, podcasts, print publications, and digital), Time of Grace teaches tough topics in an approachable and relatable way, accessible in multiple languages, making the Bible clear and understandable for those who need encouragement in their walks of faith and for those who don’t yet know Jesus at all.
