Simple Grace Radio
Simple Grace Radio exists to share Christ's glorious grace for a transformed life. We pray that God will powerfully work by connecting the realities of the Good News in Christ to the everyday patterns of our life. We are confident because the Bible says real transformation comes from hearing this Good News, "I am not ashamed of the Gospel [Good News]," Paul writes in Romans 1:16 "for it is the power of God unto salvation." The Gospel shows us how serious the consequences of our sin are: Jesus had to die a painful death on a cross to bear our sin. It's not enough, therefore, to live a basically good and moral life. Everybody needs forgiveness and salvation offered only in Jesus. Come to him to find life, peace and lasting joy.

One of the questions I constantly ask as I prepare a sermon is this: What is this text
about? What’s the point? What is the key truth – and why does it matter? What difference should this truth make in our busy week-day lives? How does this truth help the person dealing with a difficult marriage, or wrestling through profound loss and grief? You get the idea.
So, what’s the key truth of Romans 11:25-33 – and what difference does it make? Paul is wrapping up his discussion concerning the problem of Jewish unbelief. He’s been at it for 3 chapters. We’ve been working our way through this for 3 months. How is this 1st century problem supposed to provide any practical help to us as 21st century Christians?
