Word of the Week - Grace
Understanding Grace: Unmerited Favor in Christianity
In this episode of the Middletown Baptist Church podcast series 'Word of the Week,' Pastor Josh explores the concept of 'grace' within the Christian faith. He defines grace as 'unmerited favor,' emphasizing its significance in receiving God's gifts, such as salvation. Through various scriptural references like Ephesians 2:8 and Acts 20:24, Pastor Josh explains how grace is not earned through works but given by God out of love. He encourages Christians to grow in their understanding of grace and to extend it to others by reflecting God's love and mercy. Concluding with an invitation to trust in the gift of grace, Pastor Josh aims to inspire listeners to live out this fundamental concept daily.
