Elements of Grace explores the journey of Christian faith through the essential "elements" by which we encounter God's grace: Earth, Water, Spirit, Light, Darkness, Discipleship, and Word. By combining the story of Scripture and the stories of everyday life, Barkley Thompson offers a series of profound meditations that communicate the heart of the gospel. Readers will find themselves both comforted and challenged at the way Elements of Grace brings a new understanding to the depth of Christian discipleship.
