Welcome to Strategy of Christ

Discover Life in Christ.

A life received by grace. A journey walked with Jesus. A hope held secure in him.

Whether you are exploring the Christian faith or have followed Jesus for many years, the invitation is to know him, trust him and walk with him. Christian life begins with what God has done for us in his Son.

01

The Good News

God made us to know and love him, but sin separates us from him. In love, the Father sent Jesus Christ, who lived without sin, died for our sins and rose again. Through him, God offers forgiveness and reconciliation to all who turn to him in repentance and faith.

02

United with Christ

By the Holy Spirit and through faith, we are united with Jesus Christ. In him, we receive forgiveness, a righteous standing before God, adoption into God's family, new life and the hope of glory.

03

Living by Grace

Life in Christ shapes our relationships, work, decisions and struggles. By his Spirit, we learn to turn from sin, love others and follow his Word, growing together in grace as we look forward to his return.

Your Next Step

Take a Step Towards Him

Begin by reading the Gospel of John. Bring your questions honestly to God, and speak with a Christian you trust or a local church that faithfully teaches the Bible. You do not need to make yourself worthy before coming to Christ. Turn to him and trust his saving grace.

Why This Book

The Christian life is not something we add to Christ.

It is life in him. Christ Our Life shows how union with Christ is the root of everything — our new standing before God, our daily communion with him, our victory over sin, and our hope of glory.
