Ep. 334 - Deeply Defining Grace and Mercy Clarifies Our Identity in Christ Confirms Janey Pitts

Christians use words every day with reckless abandon, failing to understand what they mean. Janey Pitts is the author of Deeply Defined: Understanding Who You Are in Christ. Janey is also the Missions Mobilizer at New Work Fellowship, and discusses the importance of properly defining words like grace and holiness. Janey explains the delicate balance between doing things for the Lord and simply resting and being still in the Lord. “It’s important sometimes to just stop and BE,” she says. We don’t have to earn the Lord’s love or salvation. However, we are still called to use our gifts to glorify God. You don’t just sit and think about what God is calling you to do - it has to be accompanied by action!
