What's so Amazing about Grace?
Everything about the American way of life teaches you get what you earn in life. In America we are very aware of the values of competition and winning and we know what it means to work hard and use elbow grease. We value effort and sweat. The only problem with the American work ethic is God doesn't operate on the American work ethic. It makes it difficult many times for us to relate to God because we're in this work driven mentality. You can't understand the Christian life at all unless you understand grace. It is the heart of faith. It is the heart of a relationship to God. When you understand grace you're going to feel closer to God. The more you understand grace the more you're going to be drawn to God, the more you're going to love God, the more you're going to be grateful to God. It is by the system of grace that God brings us to Himself. Grace is a multi-faceted diamond. There are many aspects to it. There is no single definition to describe what grace is all about. Our goal through this series is not to just understand grace, but to experience it, feel it and enjoy the grace of God in your life.
