In this episode, Michael chats with Stu, a friend and university lecturer who has spent years studying the Bible. They talk openly about how grace has felt at different points in their faith journey.Stu shares how, in the early days, he thought grace meant life would always be smooth because God is good. Over time, that view shifted. He now sees grace as something deeper. Sometimes it shows up when life feels hard or when prayers go unanswered. Sometimes, grace is found in the closed doors too.They talk about how many people struggle with the idea of God as a father, especially when their own fathers were absent or unkind. Stu explains that faith is not about ticking boxes or trying to be good enough. It's about staying close to God, building a real relationship, and learning to trust Him even when it doesn't make sense.If you’ve ever felt like you had to earn God’s approval, or if you’ve worried you’ve messed up too badly, this conversation will give you space to breathe. Stu reminds us that God's grace isn't something we can lose by falling short. It's a gift we were never meant to earn.This is a real and honest talk about faith, struggles, and the quiet strength that comes from knowing you're still loved in the middle of it all.#grace #faith #realfaith #relationshipnotreligion #biblestudy #christianlife #trustgod #jesuslovesyou #podcastchat #faithjourney #australianchristianpodcast
