Send us a textTwo words can rewrite a life: “But God.” We open Ephesians 2 and watch grace move the story—from dead in sin to alive with Christ, from condemnation to no condemnation, from strangers to family. Along the way, we sit with the woman caught in adultery and the prodigal on the road home, and we watch mercy run first, justice be satisfied at the cross, and dignity be restored with a name, a robe, and a place at the table.I share why grace is truly uncommon: it runs on mercy, not merit; it flows from God’s nature, not our worthiness; and it does more than pardon—it empowers. You’ll hear how “but God” moments show up in ordinary days, how righteousness becomes a gift not a grind, and why boasting dies where gratitude is born. We talk about identity in Christ—chosen, redeemed, adopted, co‑heirs—and how that identity frees us from guilt and equips us for hard places: strained families, unjust workplaces, private weaknesses that won’t budge. “My grace is sufficient” becomes more than a line; it becomes fuel.Then we turn to purpose. If grace saved us, it also sent us. We are God’s workmanship, created for good works prepared in advance. Love becomes public evidence: clothing the cold, feeding the hungry, visiting the forgotten, listening to the lonely. An adoption story makes the Gospel visible—abandoned to beloved, nameless to named, roomless to room of one’s own— and reminds us what God has done for us and now wants to do through us.
