Captured by Grace

In Captured by Grace, I love the simple and straightforward way with which Dr. David Jeremiah presents the concept of grace and its impact on our lives.  So simple and yet so profound are his thoughts on the story of grace that it is nearly impossible to put down.  Dr. David Jeremiah uses the lives of the apostle Paul and John Newton, the author of the hymn, Amazing Grace, to highlight the beauty, power, and wonder that is grace.

The book is separated into three sections: Grace for the past, grace for the present, and grace for the future.  Seeing grace in those three very distinct ways gave me such a new perspective.  In fact, my favorite part of the book comes in the section, grace for the past, when we are shown the "seven wonders of grace" all based from the scripture Hebrews 5:1-11.

If you are a history lover, you will love the references and parallels in these men's lives as it relates to grace.  Even if you are not, this book is sure to bless and inspire your life.  I would recommend this book to anyone, especially those who are currently seeking to understand salvation and the meaning of grace.
