"Life is filled with obligations-tasks, duties, and dos and don'ts-and when we meet them, we feel a sense of accomplishment. As a result, we often look for meaning or happiness in our performance. We try to earn our way through life. We try to earn favor with God. But what we find instead is constant striving, weariness, and fear. In this book, Pastor Robert Morris shows that we don't need to live this way. What we truly want has been given to us. We just need to be aware of these gifts. Looking in-depth at the life and teachings of Jesus, Pastor Morris reveals anew God's amazing grace. He shows its sheer abundance, its lavishness, and extravagance, and he explains what happens in our day-to-day lives when we fully understand it. Exploring the blessings we have now-access to God's love, favor, and approval-Pastor Morris teaches us how to find rest, gratitude, fruitfulness, confidence, joy, and the list goes on. In other words, Grace, Period. is a clear and compelling roadmap for arriving at an end to shame and striving. It is a guide for finding and enjoying the abundant life God sent Jesus to purchase for us. A life given to us by grace-only grace"-- Provided by publisher.
