But God is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much, that even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you have been saved!) For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus. So God can point to us in all future ages as examples of the incredible wealth of his grace and kindness toward us, as shown in all he has done for us who are united with Christ Jesus. God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.

God has given all of us a gift so amazing and so incredible that most people don’t know what to do with it. This gift is grace, and in this plan, Dr. Tony Evans teaches about the grace of God and how all encompassing it truly is.
In this plan we will read through the "king" passages of grace. We will memorize 6 words: You Were, But God, So That. We were dead, but God rescued us, so that we will have grace for ages to come. God wants us to follow Him, and grace is the seed that makes spiritual growth and maturity possible. Grace is ever growing, deeper and bigger than we know. With grace, discipleship is possible.
When things go wrong, it is not always the devil’s handiwork. It could just as easily be God putting an obstacle in your path so you can grow from overcoming that struggle. In this insightful reading plan, Tony Evans teaches how difficulties happen for reasons beyond our comprehension.
Being a Christian… what does that mean? Jesus did not come to establish a religion or an institution. He came to establish a relationship. In this first devotional from the Follow series, we will focus on the idea that Jesus came to make a relationship with our Creator possible. Jesus did something amazing and He invites us to follow Him so we can have an abundant life on this earth.
