Description
What has God's grace meant in your life? In this chapel talk, given during the Fall of 2016, Paul Spilsbury unpacks the Apostle Paul's description of the outworking of God's grace in his own life, as laid out in Romans 15:14-21. The Apostle Paul saw himself as one with a specific calling, and a specific duty, both gifts from God. We too are challenged to offer ourselves to God, and to live out the obedience of faith in our service to Jesus.
