      Praise for Walking in God’s Grace

      Walking in God’s Grace is an excellent discussion of what Christians often overlook — God’s grace is not only essential to entering the Christian life, it is also essential for living it. Through a careful handling of Scripture, the exciting truth is stressed that victory in the Christian life comes not from focusing on the promises we have made to Him, but the provision He has made for us on the cross. Any believer who wants to know how the grace of God applies to the here and now will be helped by reading this book.

      Dr. R. Larry Moyer, Founder & CEO, EvanTell

      In their new guidebook, Walking in God’s Grace: Practical Answers to Tough Questions, World Prayr has created a much needed resource for believers — baby and bustling alike. Through an exhaustive list of questions and well-crafted answers meant to challenge and grow followers of Messiah, the book educates and strengthens both readers and inquirers. Topics include grace, sin, forgiveness, relating to family, the promises of life in Jesus, obedience, church and even discerning God’s will. While not claiming to be a theological treatise, the answers are Bible-centered and very practical. Readers will be drawn to dig deeper into the Scriptures as they make their way through this thought-provoking book.

      In addition to the paper product, World Prayr provides an expanded resources section with other books, periodicals, blogs, podcasts and online message repositories, as well as material from the authors themselves.

      My colleague at Jews for Jesus, Sean Trank, has long appreciated the unique online ministry of World Prayr as they provide a great service to believers by highlighting needs and fostering prayer globally. World Prayr, through this new publication, will add a great resource for our online network of volunteers who are often asked to answer difficult questions. We now have another valuable tool to add to our arsenal of answers.

      Susan Perlman, Associate Executive Director, Jews for Jesus

      A needed return to grace-empowered living that will establish new Christians in biblical thinking and struggling Christians in biblical freedom and joy.

      This book delivers grace-based living through a return to foundational truths of holiness and sin that makes grace the rich biblical truth that it is.

      New Christians will be glad for a resource that develops them by answering the questions that challenge their faith. Established Christians will be grateful for a resource that guides them in their spiritual conversations with those whom they disciple.

      Pastor Mike Haury, Crossroads Community Church, Madison Ohio

      For those who have never experienced God’s grace, and for those who have not yet discovered that their own righteousness is woefully inadequate, this book provides a practical guide for living a joyful Christian life, filled with God’s grace. Its pages are filled with God’s extravagant love for mankind as well as admonition for avoiding the trap of legalism. It clearly points out the distinction between law and grace and the role of each in our walk with the Lord.

      The question and answer format makes it easy to find specific information, such as how to study the Bible or pray. Especially helpful is the fact that in most cases scripture references are quoted rather that depending on the reader to look them up in their Bible. Caution is given to those who read passages in isolation and base their beliefs on less than the entire Bible.

      The pages of this book will expand your horizons and provoke thoughtful self examination.

      In Walking in God’s Grace – Practical Answers to Tough Questions World Prayr have tackled a topic that many writers shy away from because it is not possible to teach “grace” as it should be, without appearing to some, to sanction licentious living. But let God be God! In reality, the challenge most of have as believers, is the problem of the journey from heart to head. Our hearts know that we are saved by grace because that’s where salvation takes place. However, as human beings, our heads somehow find it difficult to accept the truth that we can be justified and sanctified without us doing anything.

      In Walking in God’s Grace World Prayr have succeeded in showing in practical ways, how we can get our heads to understand and accept what our hearts already know: the fact that in the words of Brennan Manning in All Is Grace: A Ragamuffin Memoir “God loves you unconditionally, as you are and not as you should be, because nobody is as they should be. It is the message of grace…A grace that pays the eager beaver who works all day long the same wages as the grinning drunk who shows up at ten till five.… A grace that hikes up the robe and runs breakneck toward the prodigal reeking of sin and wraps him up and decides to throw a party no ifs, ands, or buts.… This grace is indiscriminate compassion. It works without asking anything of us.… Grace is sufficient even though we huff and puff with all our might to try to find something or someone it cannot cover. Grace is enough.… Jesus is enough.”

      Walking in God’s Grace provides to the point answers to difficult questions about the meaning and scope of grace, as well as our response to God in the face of His unconditional love. It is well written and easy to read. I believe it will be blessing to the Body of Christ.
