God showers his grace upon us. His unmerited favor is a given. All we can do to hinder the flow of His grace is to refuse its offer. As we receive God’s grace, it leaves an unmistakable trail in our lives – a new life, a new identity, and a new purpose. Scripture from Ephesians 2:4-10.

For those holding a form of religion while denying its power, Christianity is a farce – a put-on. But authentic Christianity is both a put-off and a put-on – putting off the old self and putting on the new. Authentic faith involves putting on honesty, encouragement, and love that makes an impact on a watching world. Scripture from Ephesians 4:25-5:2.
