There’s nothing that is as compelling as undeserved, lavish, overflowing love. That’s what Christians have experienced from God…and it’s too compelling, and too important, not to share.

When you’re saved by grace, you can’t help but see others differently. Particularly those around you who are saved by the same grace you are, and who God gives you to grow and be grown by.

We have a God who speaks. But when we grapple with the idea of grace, we begin to understand the incredible truths of what God has made us. He hasn’t only justified us, but he’s adopted us into his family. And not just as children, but as heirs. And grasping this changes the way we listen to Him.
