Is grace dangerous? Does more grace just lead to more sin? This week we see from Romans 6:1-14 how grace is actually the best motivator to put off sin and live for God as Paul calls us to be true to our (new) selves as those who are united to Christ in his death and resurrection by not letting sin reign in our lives but offering every part of ourselves to God.

Redemption – Sinners Bought by God

What do you need to see real, long-term change in your life? Just trying harder won’t do it. Guilt and shame won’t work long-term. It’s only God’s grace that can do it… This week we look at our next Big Word in God’s Big Plan: Redemption – Sinners Bought by God. We see from Titus 2:11-14 that in Jesus, God paid the price to redeem us from sin so we live for Him, able to turn away from sin and grow in Godliness by his grace.

Resurrection – Raised from death to eternal life

If you’re united to Jesus by faith, then you get a new life now and a new body in the future. In our new life we consider ourselves as dead to sin and we conduct ourselves by presenting ourselves to God as instruments for doing righteousness. This week we look at our next Big Word in God’s Big Plan: Resurrection – Raised from death to eternal life. We see from Romans 6:1-14 that because Jesus has been raised from the dead, we’ve been given new life to live for Him.
