What is grace?
"Grace." That's a term about which we know so much and yet so little. Ask four Christians about the term and you're likely to get four different answers. It's a word that often escapes definition. Yet, it's something that is so central to our faith. We are justified by it. We are sanctified by it. And we will be glorified by it as well. It is the grace of God that elects and redeems us. It is the grace of God that sustains us. So, why is it so hard to explain? Could it be that way because the one from whom it originates is so hard to explain? This devotion will take you through many of the verses that utilize the term. The goal is not to define "grace". The goal is to describe it and show how it operates in our new lives. As you read each devotion, space is provided on the next page for you to work out your own thoughts and insights. Because, in the end, maybe it's not about defining the term but perhaps it's about understanding how it defines God and how it defines us.

About the Book
Grace is the free and unmerited favor of God, shown in the salvation of sinners and the gift of blessings. It is also the condition of being favored by someone.
We all have an idea of what "grace" means in terms of its definition. But do we really understand what grace means in regards to our daily life? This thirty-one-day devotional will take you through some of the most common New Testament verses regarding "grace" and help you understand what it means in your daily life and for your future. God's grace is not just unmerited favor purchased for us by Jesus Christ. It is the power by which we are saved. It is the support for daily obedience. And it is the hope of eternal glory.
