Deep dives
Recovering a Faith that Balances Grace and Design
Many Christians are feeling a cultural shift towards the right, yet evangelicalism often struggles to lead in this moment. This disconnect arises from an emphasis on grace that neglects the initial design of creation. The understanding of grace should involve recognizing the goodness of creation and how our redeemed lives connect to it. Addressing this requires a renewed theology that embraces both grace and natural order, allowing for a more informed and relevant response to cultural changes.
