What is this thing called grace?
It's a question worth asking. It's an enquiry worth pondering, especially if you've never thought much about it. Whether grace is something you associate with saying thanks before a meal, or a word you've heard in religious circles but never fully grasped, I believe it's much more than that. Grace is not a theory. It's not a doctrine. It's something you can experience.
Grace is real. It often comes in unexpected moments. You may not even recognise it at first. But looking back, you know something greater than yourself was at work. That's what this book is about. Grace Encounters - Moments That Change Everything: is not a polished memoir or a theological manual. It is a record of the moments in my life where grace rescued me and made the difference I could never do on my own.
Moments when the weight of my shame lifted. Moments when the fear of death and illness lost its grip. Times when grief gave way to peace, and brokenness was met with hope. These aren't just nice memories. They are lived experiences. They are events I have walked through.
I believe when you uncover what grace really is, you will open your heart to receive it too. This book is my testimony. Not just of survival, but of transformation. If it weren't for grace, I don't know where I'd be. But I do know this: grace is not far from any one of us.
Every chapter holds the same message - you are not beyond grace. In fact, it is already abounding toward you. If you have ever asked yourself what is beyond your own effort and strength, if you have hit the end of your rope and wondered if there's more, this book will encourage you to recognise your own grace encounters.
