"Grace and peace." We see this phrase 14 times in the New Testament, used most often by the apostle Paul. The apostles Peter and John also used it. We might be tempted to think of "grace and peace" as just a cordial greeting without much significance. But it is much more than that. Its origins go beyond the first century with a thread that links it back to the Old Testament. Knowing the significance of this thread will give you an even deeper understanding of God's grace.

About our new podcast "Bible Threads With Dr. Bruce Becker":

The Bible can be intimidating, right? There are 66 different books, more than 700,000 words, and all of it was written over a period of 1,600 years by dozens of different authors. How do we make sense of it all, and what does it mean for our lives? Amazingly, the Bible is incredibly interconnected with “threads” that run through it from beginning to end. In this podcast, Bible scholar and author Dr. Bruce Becker will uncover these threads, help you dig deeper into God’s truth, and inspire you to live your life with greater confidence and joy.

Dr. Becker brings his vast experience to share with you through this podcast. He has served as the pastor of a mission start in New York State, lead pastor of a church in Brillion, Wisconsin, and a ministry coach to churches and schools."
