Paul Zahl has long been captivated by the idea of one-way love, or "God's Grace," and has contended with accusations of being "long on grace but short on law."
Grace in Practice begins with Zahl's response to the classic tension between law and grace. He then sets up the four pillars of his own theology of grace: humanity, salvation, Christ and the Holy Spirit in the Trinity.
Zahl continues by exploring how grace manifest itself in our families in society and in the church. He examines the grace that can be found in singleness, relationships, politics, the mall, social class distinction and more. He also delves into what grace looks like for those in ministry and how they can model grace for those they seek to help and to lead.
After helpfully narrowing down specific fields of grace, Zahl concludes with an expanded view of grace in everything, extending this good news to all creation. Two useful appendixes of proper names and biblical references are also included.
Filled with fascinating insight into how to live this generous theology,
Grace in Practice will delight all Christians who seek to understand the full measure of God's grace.
