Emily Belle Freeman: Grace For All Seasons
All In
We all find ourselves in circumstances where we are in desperate need of help, moments where we find ourselves incapable of doing what is asked of us. For each of these moments, there is an answer: Grace. But do we only receive grace after doing everything within our power? And how do we know if we’ve done everything within our power? On today’s episode of “All In,” Emily Belle Freeman shares what she has learned about grace and what she believes “after all we can do” really means. "That's how we would describe grace to people: It's when we feel that abundance of love, it's when we feel that hope, it's the increase of what Christ can bring into mortality for us so we can make it through." Show Notes: 2:52-The Evolution of Grace 5:53- What Even Is Grace? 9:26- A Daughter Named Grace 14:41- His Touch in Our Lives Reflected 18:39- A God-Given Love for Jesus 23:46- Grace Began in the Garden of Eden 28:32- “After All We Can Do” 33:36- Enabling Power 36:24- “Your One Holy Thing” 42:30- Grace Where You Are 44:13- What Does It Mean To Be “All In”?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
