Marvelous Amazing Grace

Contributed by John Beehler on Jun 19, 2002

God’s grace is not for sale, we can’t earn it. All we have to do is ask for it and He will give it to us and it will be sufficient.

Extending Grace To Others Series

"Growing In Grace Together”

Contributed by Austin Calder on Apr 21, 2020

Grace is a terribly misunderstood word and defining it sufficiently is very difficult. Some of the most detailed theology textbooks do not offer any concise definition of the term. Someone came up with this acronym: GRACE is God’s---Riches--- At---Christ’s---Expense.

That’s not a bad way to characterize grace. One of the best-known definitions of grace is only three words: God’s unmerited favor. A. W. 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
