Dr. Andrew Farley, author of the new book The Grace Message--Is The Gospel Really This Good? (released March 8 on Salem Books), joins the program today.

Packed with Scripture, and with stories interspersed throughout, The Grace Message covers many aspects of God's grace--not just about "forgiveness when [you] fail and Heaven when [you] die."  He adds that many in churches "don't see the empowerment of God's grace, so they seek to lessen it, temper it, or balance it with something else. They kill their victory over sin and don't even realize it. In reality, there is no deeper message than the Gospel of grace."

Farley writes about the Old Covenant v the New Covenant, including "The New Covenant is not about you and your dedication, your commitment, or your faithfulness. It's actually about God's faithfulness to Himself. That's what secures you." Farley shares insights about faith, the Law, the Ten Commandments, and what it looks like to live under His grace (as well as challenges a person may face embracing His grace).

Dr. Farley is a bestselling author of nine books and is the president of The Grace Message, a non-profit Christian media ministry. He hosts "The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley" weeknights at 8pm on SiriusXM & other platforms. More information is available at www.thegracemessage.org.
