grace

We often speak of grace...... But do we understand it?                                       
More importantly, do we truly believe in it ...and do our lives proclaim it as powerfully as our words?
If grace is God's love for the undeserving, then what does it look like in action? And if Christians are its sole dispensers, then how are we doing at lavishing grace on a cruel and pain-filled world? If you're willing to leave your comfort zone to embrace a more vigorous, passionate Christianity, then in these five-weeks God will soften, and thrill your heart and life all-over-again by His grace!

Paul wrote: 'When we went under the water, we left the old country of sin behind, when we came up out of the water, we entered into the new country of grace - a new life in a new land,' (Romans 6:2, The Message). I wonder if Paul wrote this or I just imagined it?!

Many churches seem to live without this truth at the centre of their common life. It is more than accepting and becoming part of a local church, more than embracing church-ianity, so bland and sterile in comparison to the new life Paul describes! As we look at what it means to 'Live in Grace' as individuals and as a church family during April prepare to grapple with grace and "un-grace". Consider how you can contend graciously with all you face today...discover how you can become Christ's answer to a world that desperately wants to know,
So ... what's so Amazing About
Liberating Grace?
Transforming Grace?
Compassionate Grace?
Empowering Grace?
Serving Grace?

 

Understand Grace!

Embrace Grace!

Live Grace!

Hello there,

I came across your notes at Shenfield School on Alexander Lane. I hope you don’t mind me keeping them, as they made me think about my church-going days many many years ago.

Thank you
