GraceJourney down the path to freedom

The word grace is a short, simple word. But understanding the biblical depth and meaning of grace can take a lifetime of study and application. It’s almost a shame that a word describing suppleness of movement or a short, quick prayer before a meal is the same word we use to describe God’s unfathomable love for sinners. Nevertheless, it is grace that moves Him to offer us the free gift of salvation and forgiveness.

Grace is what compelled the apostle Paul to write of a mystery never understood before (1 Corinthians 2:7–13). Grace is also what allows us to relax into another’s accepting embrace as he or she gives us the freedom to discover our unique journey laid out by God. So relax as we journey together down the path toward freedom and the wonderment of the surpassing riches of God’s grace!

"The Grace of God" from the series How Great is Our God!

(2 Samuel 9:1–13)

Some Bible words have been handled for so long they’ve become shopworn and of little interest to anyone. Not so with the word grace; it still retains its luster and mystery. Perhaps this is because grace is a free gift.

Balancing Grace with Love

Purchased MP3 series can be downloaded as a single .zip file that includes all the MP3 messages from the series or separately as individual MP3 files.

Conflict is pervasive. It inhabits every corner and crevice of this sin-stained world. In this miniseries covering Romans 14, Chuck Swindoll teaches us that if we’re to practice consistent gracious living in spite of conflict, we require the presence of others. People with different perspectives and values can challenge our ability to live with them in unity, peace, and love. Yet, as laid out clearly in Scripture, unity is the goal for believers. If we mean to work through our conflicts and live in unity, only a regular outpouring of grace and love will suffice.
