"The church is marked by its unity, shared life, commonality, and community—in a word: fellowship. Fellowship is critical to the life of the church. Christianity is not a spectator event that happens on Sunday but a common, shared life with other believers."
— John MacArthur
Our 2026 Sundays in July seminars have concluded. We are grateful for everyone who joined us for these special times of fellowship and equipping.
We pray the seminars encouraged you and strengthened your relationships within the church.
Audio recordings from most of the seminars are available below. We look forward to gathering again next summer.
Since graduating from The Master’s Seminary in 1996, Brian has served in a number of ways at Grace Church, including in two missionary assignments in Africa. He pastored a church in Johannesburg, South Africa, for eight years and spent more than nine years in Malawi helping to plant a church and assist in the launch of the Central African Preaching Academy. In 2016, Brian and his wife, Anita, returned to Southern California with their four children (Ami, Bradley, Benjamin, and Allison) where he accepted a position at The Master’s Seminary as a full-time professor in the department of pastoral ministries. Brian also serves as the pastor of the Steadfast fellowship group.
