“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.” Link in the comments.
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!
How tragically impoverished our reading of #Scripture becomes when we engage it as less than it is. It was meant to be a prayer that locates us within the life of the #Trinity, not a manual, handbook, or perhaps the most ignorant of all acronyms, ‘basic instructions before leaving earth.’ In the #Psalms, we find our own hearts given language—grief, hope, adoration, confusion, joy—all lifted into communion with the One who listens no matter how true the words are. Scripture speaks through us when we stop trying merely to explain it and begin to let it pray through us.

Malcolm Smith

Karl Barth Professor of Trinitarian Theology

Malcolm Smith was born in London, England as Europe was about to be plunged into WW2. He came to faith in Jesus Christ in his early teens and almost immediately experienced the fullness of the Spirit that was to change and redirect his life forever. From that day he had a passion to know the covenant love of God and how that love is worked out in our fellowship with God and loving one another. He began to preach at age fourteen and came to the United States in the early 1960’s becoming a teacher and leader of the emerging renewal of the Spirit throughout all denominations. Since then he has traveled to almost every continent teaching the love of God. He now resides in Bandera, Texas and conducts retreats and a non-residential Bible School. He also travels throughout the U.S. conducting retreats and meetings in churches and organizations of all denominations. UnconditionalLoveFellowship.com
