What is God’s grace?

Have you ever received a gift you didn't
deserve? The gift was given to you out of
love. God is so great that He gives us His
grace because of His love for us.
 Grace is God showing His love to you
even though you don't deserve it. You can't
earn God's grace. You do not deserve to be
saved from sin and to have eternal life, or to
be blessed by God’s guidance in this life. But
God showed His grace by saving you from
sin's punishment when you trusted in Jesus
as your Saviour.
Coming up in May – the Grace
course on Wednesdays

The Grace Course helps us as Christians
recover our first love for God so that we go on
to love others and make a great impact on
the world. Its objective is to enable us to
experience God's grace in such a deep
and real way that love for Him becomes
the main motivator in their lives.
 For those who have done Freedom in Christ,
the course covers some key areas in a lot
more depth than the Discipleship Course:
guilt; shame; fear; pride; and ministering
out of rest. It tends to draw from the
Gospels a little more than the epistles.
