For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called “the uncircumcision” by what is called the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands— remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.

God has given all of us a gift so amazing and so incredible that most people don’t know what to do with it. This gift is grace, and in this plan, Dr. Tony Evans teaches about the grace of God and how all encompassing it truly is.
Our minds and schedules are so preoccupied that we’ve forgotten how to rest. And when we fail to rest we do more than burn ourselves out—we misunderstand the God who calls us to rest and created us to be people of rest. So when we learn the art of sabbath keeping, we learn to rest and we learn about the One who gives us rest.
In this plan we will read through the "king" passages of grace. We will memorize 6 words: You Were, But God, So That. We were dead, but God rescued us, so that we will have grace for ages to come. God wants us to follow Him, and grace is the seed that makes spiritual growth and maturity possible. Grace is ever growing, deeper and bigger than we know. With grace, discipleship is possible.
