GRACE.: Undeserved, Unstoppable (The Discipleship Library)

You believe in grace. But do you live in it? Most people who believe in grace do not live in it. They acknowledge it, they are glad it exists — and they keep carrying the weight of a debt Jesus has already paid. They believe in grace but practice wages: the quiet, exhausting economy where God’s favor tracks with their performance and bad weeks put distance between themselves and God. GRACE. … Undeserved and Unstoppable is for the person who knows the word but has not yet felt the ground. Drawing on Paul’s letter to the Romans — the most comprehensive argument about grace ever written — Steve and Lynne Johnson walk through Romans 5 and 8 slowly, gift by gift and declaration by declaration. They begin honestly with the world most of us actually inhabit: keeping score, settling for counterfeits, doing the best we can and arriving at its limit. Then they turn the corner. Readers will find: A fresh, accessible walk through Romans 5 and Romans 8 Greek word studies that illuminate what English cannot hold (huperperisseuō, tetelestai, hesed, charis, chara) The critical difference between guilt, shame, and conviction — and why it matters at three in the morning What grace looks like on an ordinary Tuesday at eight o’clock Personal stories of loss, grief, addiction, and the grace that held anyway A prayer to receive grace, for those who are ready to sign their name After nearly fifty years of marriage and ministry, Steve and Lynne describe this book as a telescope experience: not a new subject, but a closer view of something that has always been there. They found grace to be far larger than they expected. This book is an invitation to look. “Where sin increased, grace superabounded with more added to that.” — Romans 5:20 (Wuest) Ideal for: individual reading, small group study, new believers, or anyone who has been carrying what Jesus has already paid.
