Joel Brueseke replied to Ana Teixeira's discussion 'Works'
Hi Ana, This site is meant to be a place of freedom, so if you have any questions or comments about grace, feel free to share your heart! It's also fine to have other "off topic" stuff, and my hope is that it would always be uplifting and encoura...

Joel Brueseke replied to Ana Teixeira's discussion 'Works'
Hi Ana! Your English is very good! Thanks for sharing your heart here. I like what Lennart and Howard have said. Indeed it's true that we are saved by grace and we don't need to work for our salvation. In the same way, that's how we live the rest...

Joel Brueseke replied to Tammy Engelbert's discussion 'WAY OFF SUBJECT, But Asking For Support'
Hey all. I fully support Tammy in this! I hope we can rally and help her family! It's a 'power saver' challenge which they've already put a lot of hard work into, and it would be so thrilling to see them win the Grand Prize!

Joel Brueseke replied to RealRestIsBest's discussion 'Accepting Jesus as Saviour but not as Lord??'
I was training a new guy yesterday on my job (as a fill in person), and we got into a really neat conversation about church and religion, etc. He mentioned exactly this very same thing... that the church and legalism has complicated things, and I ...

Great question/discussion topic, and great response, Matthew! Just a thought to add: Jesus IS Lord, we don't make Him Lord!

Religion hindered me a great deal but thank God for graciously revealing that its all of Jesus plus nothing

Joel Brueseke commented on Joel Brueseke's blog post 'There are no cookie cutter Christians!'
Isn't it funny ... and sad at the same time... when we realize that the things we do "naturally" are the things that God has been doing through us all along! I also used to have such a distorted view of what "ministry" was. I thought it had to inv...

Great words, June. That's wonderful about how people are drawn to your husband. Religion doesn't do that, but your husband being who he is in Christ will do that! This reminds me of an interview Mark Lowry did with Jay Bakker (son of Jim and Tamm...

Joel Brueseke commented on Joel Brueseke's blog post 'You ran well - who hindered you?'
June... wow, lots of great stuff here! Indeed, "religion" has definitely sidetracked us from the real thing, the true gospel of grace and peace. We've made it about what "we" can do to maintain our standing and relationship with God, which to me i...

You heathen! Next thing you know, you'll be shaving around the sides of your head! (Lev 19:27). You'll be sowing mixed seed in a field and wearing garments of mixed linen and wool! (Lev 19:19). You won't be rising before gray haired and old men! (...

Mark Lowry interviews Jay Bakker

I first posted these two videos a couple of years ago, a few weeks after Tammy Faye Bakker died. I thought Jay had some great things to say about grace and relationships - but not only "talk" - it seems as if he is really living it out. And Mark is simply a hoot to listen to. =D

You ran well - who hindered you?

(A look at this verse in context and with my own personal story).

You ran well. Who hindered you from obeying the truth? (Gal 5:7)

It's a long story to tell about the years leading up to the beginning of what some would call my "walk with Jesus," but suffice it to say that I can't remember a time in life when I was not a believer. Yet I do recall a specific day - January 7, 1992 - when things really changed in my life and I began "running," so to speak.

I was 2… Continue

Growing in Grace 211 - God is at Work in You



So often we seem to make the Christian life about our work that we do for God. But as we discuss this week, it's not about the work that we do for God, but rather about His work that He does in and through us! HE has begun a good work in us and HE is faithful to complete it!… Continue

Hi Joel. this is my second attempt at putting something here. The first disappeared and didn't come up.
I am having real problems adting my discussions. I have just completed one and when I finished the edit process, and pressed the screen button, it just published the previous faulty unedited one and lost the fresh version. It was then beyond time to start a new edit process so the wrong one is now on screen. This has happened before and I can't seem to stop it.
Sometimes the only way to alter things has been to delete it all. I then have ended up with a blank with my name at the top all because i couldn't get any other response on screen.
I shall now attempt to press the "Add comment" button and see if this registers.

Hi Joel,
This is a great vision that you have to bring together people impacted by the grace gospel to share and learn and grow together.

Here in Singapore, I have "met" a number of bloggers, from my church as well as other churches, who embrace the grace gospel and we have grown from meeting in cyberspace to meeting in person for fellowship over a meal (Singapore is a very small place and it is quite convenient to meet if we can agree on an appropriate time).

Thank God for the internet that fellow Christians from different continents can easily "meet" and thank you for starting this community.

Shalom.
