Where the journey begins
Grace
comes first.
Through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, God saves sinners who turn to him and trust in him. New life is received by grace through faith.
The Father welcomes us in his Son, and the Holy Spirit makes Christ’s life present and fruitful in us. The trilogy explores that one life from three connected perspectives.
Ephesians 2:8–10 · 1 Corinthians 15:3–4“When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.”
