Is grace the only means for our salvation?
In this episode, Bill and Scott open up about their personal journeys of discovering grace and meeting Jesus. Through powerful stories—one marked by fear and redemption, the other by slow awakening—they illustrate how grace is not a concept but a person. Their reflections show us how authentic encounters with Jesus can change the trajectories of our lives.

(5:33) When Grace Became a Person

(8:19) Scott’s Journey of Awakening

(13:37) From Salvation to Calling
* Bill reflects on how grace compelled him to share Christ.
