#vonBalthasar for the win! #LoveAlone
“The danger, of course, is that we tent-dwellers start building fortresses inside the tent. Once a particular accent on grace becomes our badge of belonging, the body of Christ’s conversation about grace fragments into mutually suspicious camps…. A grace teacher, in the healthiest sense, is someone who can recognize family resemblance across these different dialects without demanding uniformity of vocabulary or emphasis. That teacher can critique excesses and blind spots, but does so from within a posture of solidarity, not superiority.”

GGS is thrilled to introduce you to the newest member of the faculty, Dr. Dan Payne! Dr. Payne brings a wealth of experience in business, the classroom, and in ministry, most recently creating two core courses in our forthcoming Certificate of Spiritual Formation program. 

Welcome Dan Payne!
If the message emphasized what you need to do rather than what #Christ has done, then you heard the #law, not #Grace.
Wherever we find rest, we know that Love has preceded it.
Unfiltered, undiluted GRACE!
Many birthday blessings to the one and only, Academic Dean Bill Winn!
