The Sovereign Grace Journal

Dear Redeeming Grace, "...what we do on Sunday morning when the church gathers is far more extraordinary, far more astonishing, than anything else we participate in." Devon Kauflin (Lead Pastor, Grace Church) One of the many reasons we love our partnership in Sovereign Grace Churches is the mutual care and equipping we receive regularly, and in many forms. One such resou...

God Our Shepherd

Dear Redeeming Grace, Living in America in the year 2023, I would suspect most of us are unfamiliar with what it means to tend sheep as a shepherd. And because of this, we may not marvel as fully at the wonderful reality that God is our shepherd. Caleb pointed us to this so well last week as he preached from Ezekiel 34. We have a heavenly Father who doesn't outsource his...

Filled with Faith

Dear Redeeming Grace,We hope this week finds you continuing to marvel and rejoice that our risen savior is ruling this world--and our lives--from his heavenly throne. As I was thinking back to Dave's message this past Sunday, one sentence kept resounding: "God wants us to be filled with faith in a world filled with trouble." Faith and fear are both responses to the unkno...

The One Who Tasted Death

Dear Redeeming Grace, On this Good Friday, we rightly remember the death of our savior. Hebrews 2:8b-9 helps us reflect on some spiritual realities. The writer of Hebrews is speaking of the relationship of the Father and the Son when writing this: "Now in putting everything in subjection to him, he left nothing outside his control. At present, we do not yet see everythin...

Stirring Up Christlikeness

Dear Redeeming Grace, Last week, Dave reminded us that the church needs master encouragers like Barnabas. Men and women who highlight where God's grace is at work and help others look more like Christ. What a great joy that the church is one of the main contexts where this kind of encouragement happens. Listen to how the writer of Hebrews instructs us: "And let us consi...

The Message of Reconciliation

Dear Redeeming Grace, Last Sunday we thought of how we need God to act upon us and compel change in our lives for how we relate to God and others. And by His grace, He's done just that. God has transformed every believer into a new creation! In 2 Corinthians 5:17-19 Paul writes this: "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; beho...

That They May Be One

Dear Redeeming Grace, Jesus prayed these words in what is known as the High Priestly Prayer: "Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are one." (John 17:11b ESV) How amazing to think that God's desire for his people is to have a kind of unity that reflects the perfect and eternal unity of the Father and Son. Dave re...

Everyone Who Believes

Dear Redeeming Grace, Last week we saw how the gospel goes further out and further in. It goes further out as more and more people hear the transforming message of salvation, through faith in Christ alone. And it goes further in as our hearts are shaped to love like God, desiring that all would come to repentance and faith. We say it often at Redeeming Grace; we exist to...

All of Grace

Dear Redeeming Grace, Last week we considered the power of three simple words that opened the spiritual eyes of a man named Saul; "I am Jesus." With those words, Saul knew that Jesus had risen from the dead. He was alive, and He was God. Years later, as Paul reflected on his testimony in a letter to the church in Corinth, he wrote this: Last of all, as to one untimely b...

The Reach of Redemption

Dear Redeeming Grace, In Jason's message last week, we were reminded of a glorious truth: "no one is too far from the reach of redemption." The gospel is for all people. That reality becomes sweeter when we remember that includes us! We were once far off, in need of redemption, but we've been brought near by the blood of Christ (Eph. 2:13). Our hearts should overflow in ...
