Words of Life: September-December, 2002

Grace has been described as knowing that there is nothing we can do to make God love us more, and nothing we can do to make God love us less. This edition of Words of Life explores some of the stories of grace from Scripture. The prodigal son of Luke's gospel found unexpected grace in the arms of his waiting father. Jonah, the petulant prophet, met the grace of God in a most unlikely place. Esther, the young Jewish woman and Persian queen, became an agent of God's grace at a decisive moment in the history of her people. The letter to the Ephesians, an on-going study in Mark's Gospel and a Sunday selection of Psalms will help us view grace from many angles.
