Grace

Journey down the path to freedom

The word grace is a short, simple word. But understanding the biblical depth and meaning of grace can take a lifetime of study and application. It’s almost a shame that a word describing suppleness of movement or a short, quick prayer before a meal is the same word we use to describe God’s unfathomable love for sinners. Nevertheless, it is grace that moves Him to offer us the free gift of salvation and forgiveness.

Grace is what compelled the apostle Paul to write of a mystery never understood before (1 Corinthians 2:7–13). Grace is also what allows us to relax into another’s accepting embrace as he or she gives us the freedom to discover our unique journey laid out by God. So relax as we journey together down the path toward freedom and the wonderment of the surpassing riches of God’s grace!

Balancing Grace with Love

Fellow believers with different perspectives and values than ours can challenge our ability to live with them in unity, peace, and love. Yet, as laid out clearly in Romans 14, unity is the goal for believers. If we mean to work through our conflicts and live in unity, only a regular outpouring of grace and love will suffice.
