Extravagant Grace

by Barbara R. Duguid

Why God allows Christians to keep sinning: Duguid reads John Newton on sanctification as slow and humbling by design, so that grace, not progress, becomes the point. Honest and consoling for discouraged believers.

Three things you will actually use

  1. Slow growth is by design.
  2. Humility is the fruit; progress is the by-product.
  3. Grace is for the still-struggling.

Do this first

Read the chapter on Newton's three stages.

Our verdict
