Grace

There can be no better resource for a first post on this blog than a sermon on Grace by Dr. John Piper. And so that's where we begin. In a message entitled Strengthened by Grace, Dr. Piper said . . .

When I… feel guilty… and hopeless because of yesterday's failure… I need the grace of forgiveness based on a great past substitutionary sacrifice on the cross, that covers all my sins… and I need the grace of promised help from Jesus today and tomorrow.

The quote is from a sermon Dr. Piper preached back in September 1997. Even though that was more than 10 years ago, the truth of his words is timeless. The message, taken from the 13th chapter of Hebrews, continues to edify.
