Deep dives
Grace as the Core Message of the Gospel
Grace is the central message of the gospel, emphasizing that God's love is freely given and not based on our actions or worthiness. It is a transformative power that can change individuals and communities. The church should prioritize communicating grace to people, especially those who feel unworthy or judged, as Jesus did with the outcasts and marginalized during his time.
