“Grace”

“Grace”

Years ago a friend of mine, Jim Oldham was preparing to retire from ministry. At lunch (I paid!) I asked him, “If there is one thing you would do differently, what would it be?” He replied, “I would preach ‘grace’ more.” Me, too. Grace is the most glorious, irresponsible, incredible, paradoxical and amazing thing in all the bible, summed up holistically in the parable of the Prodigal Son. Grace; always grace.
