GraceLife shares the gospel of grace with the unsaved and the grace of the gospel with the saved, that all may experience what it means to be saved and to live by grace through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone. Because we live in a world that does not know or understand God’s grace and therefore has a desperate need of this grace, and because we believe that the “God of all grace” and Jesus Christ “full of grace and truth” desire all people everywhere to enjoy the salvation and freedom that grace provides, we are obedient to God’s command to share His grace message with the world.

Free Grace Theology: 5 Ways It Magnifies the Gospel sets out to demonstrate that this is not only biblical, but that it magnifies the gospel, giving glory to God. This is shown through five articles by leaders within the Free Grace movement, each article presents a distinct way that Free Grace theology magnifies the gospel.
In contrast to each of the five chapters in Dr. Wayne Grudem’s “Free Grace” Theology: 5 Ways It Diminishes the Gospel, the authors of this book show that Free Grace theology magnifies the gospel because:
Living by Grace attempts to make the case for grace in every corner of our lives. It makes sense that since we were saved by grace, we should live by grace. Since God is grace, we should not only experience His grace, but also live within it and give it to others.
Many Bible passages are difficult to understand, especially when it comes to the issues of eternal salvation and following Jesus Christ as a disciple. In Grace, Salvation, and Discipleship, you will find how to approach over 130 difficult Bible passages. Beginning with a clear understanding of God’s grace and using a unique paradigm of “A Truth, B Truth,” you will discover from the context whether the passage is about salvation or the Christian life.
In this book, Dr. Charles Bing will help you to answer the following questions:
A correct understanding of salvation and discipleship is crucial to understanding the Bible and growing in the Christian life. Only when we clearly understand what God says can we effectively share a clear gospel, be assured of our salvation, and grow in our relationship with Him.
Grace distinguishes Christianity from all other religions. Although commonly used among Christians and non-Christians, the word is too often misunderstood or underappreciated. And yet God’s grace is not only the key to becoming a Christian, but also the key to the assurance of salvation and living in freedom to serve God and others.
Simply by Grace is an easy-to-read introduction to a core Christian belief. By looking at the major questions and issues that surround the concept of grace, Charles C. Bing helps readers understand and appreciate this God-given gift and how simple it really is. “Because only when you understand the simplicity of His grace,” writes Bing, “can you begin to understand its deep riches also.”
Living in the Family of Grace answers the need for discipleship materials grounded in the grace of God. Those who use this workbook will gain a clear understanding of what it means to be saved eternally, how to live their new life in God’s family, and what commitments are involved in becoming devoted followers of Jesus Christ. The approach used is based on a model of discipleship that balances doctrinal information, character transformation, applicational disciplines, and grace-based motivation.
