In Episode 96, we go deeper into the doctrine called grace, and explore three common myths that many Christians in the community mistakenly believe. The words we use over a certain time begin to lose their true meanings, and this applies with the word “grace”’. Many Christians know the word, but hardly understand it.

"Grace" is a crucial idea in the Bible, Christianity, and the world. It is most visibly reflected in God's promises revealed in Scripture and personified in Jesus Christ. However, beauty shines brightest against the seemingly gloomy backdrop of another facet of our Creator's essence - divine anger. Grace is a soul-stirring idea that must be truly appreciated while never being controlled or misunderstood.

Tune in now and let’s go bigger, better, and deeper!
