"Growing In Grace Together”

Contributed by Austin Calder on Apr 21, 2020

Tozer expanded on that idea by saying, “Grace is the good pleasure of God that allows him to bestow benefits on the undeserving.” The key word in what have ...read more

Salvation Is By Grace, Not By Deeds

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 11, 2016
