God’s grace doesn’t just save us—it changes who we are. In this message, Dr. Jerry Shields reminds us that the same grace that redeems, forgives, and reconciles also transforms. Drawing from Ephesians 4, we discover that grace leads us to put off our old ways of thinking and living and to walk in newness of life marked by truth, kindness, and holiness.
Paul’s words challenge us to move beyond a shallow understanding of grace as mere permission to live as we please. Instead, we see that grace is God’s power at work within us, shaping our character and renewing our hearts. As we grow in Christ, grace moves us from falsehood to truth, bitterness to graciousness, selfishness to generosity, and malice to kindness.
