Up top, let me give you a link to Jacob Hudgin's book "The School of Christ"

This is it. This is the most important thing I have to share with you - maybe all year. Many of us have to reprogram our brains when it comes to the comparison of God's Grace with anything of myself: faith or works. His goodness is the beginning of all things and sustains all things. There is no scenario where my power, or your ability, is strong enough to hold us up. And God's grace is not the result of a great works effort. Too many believe this and it has cost people their faith. People give up because they think they are good enough. Well, they aren't good enough. But salvation isn't founded on our effort - it is, in every possible way, the outgrowth of God's grace!

When we get this sequence right everything changes. This sequence: from Grace to Faith to Life is God's plan for those who are not yet Christians. And it is the same plan for saving those who are. It sources everything in Him. And our lives become a reaction, a gratitude outcome, founded on His goodness. Will you explore this freeing and gracious journey with me?

- How would you compare the saving power of God's grace with your faith?

- How would you compare the saving power of God's grace with your works?

- Do you believe we start with our faith and works and then get God's help?

- Or maybe we start with good works, which leads to faith, then grace?

- Are you ready to give your mind to exploring His power to source great faith?
