This verse says it all.
What is following Jesus like these days?
For the first time in my Christian life I am really learning to understand and live in grace. I spent a lot of my life living under the legalism/morals of the "do better, be better" teaching that was prevalent in the 80's. Every day I understand the gospel in new ways... that I am totally broken, but perfectly and completely loved. There isn't anything in me that can make me any "more acceptable" in God's eyes. It is about living a life of surrender not of behavior modification. I have to daily remind myself of these truths and long to live them out in my life.How long have you been at The Journey?
I have been at the Journey since December of 2002, just 2 months after launch.What ministry are you involved in?
