    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 21, 2011

    Stepping Into The Grace Of God.

    What is grace? Grace is an unmerited favour; it is kindness from God that we do not deserve. We enjoy God’s grace because He is a merciful God.

    4 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, 5 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. 6 And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, 7 in order that in the ...read more

    True revival comes when God’s fire falls—His presence, power, and purity consuming our lives—something programs cannot produce but only surrender and prayer can invite.

    Introduction – Setting the Scene It had been an exhausting day. The hot sun beat down on the parched earth. The crowd sat under a cloudless sky for what felt like an eternity.
