Law And Gospel A Theology For Sinners (and Saints) [Paperback]

Theres a big difference between judgment and love, obligation and freedom, a wage and a gift. The difference characterizes an extraordinary amount of our day-to-day experience, often dividing fear from hope, and death from life. At the heart of Christianity lies a similar and related dynamic: between the Law and the Gospel. Far from being a reductive or antiquated distinction, understanding where one ends and the other begins allows a person to see both the Bible and themselvesindeed, the whole world!in a fresh and enlivening way. Written with the non-theologian in mind, this short volume unpacks the good news of Gods grace with practicality, humor, and a whole lot of heart.
