The Grace Controversy: Answers to 12 Common Questions

by Michael L. Brown PhD

Overview

The songwriter got it right—God’s grace is truly amazing. But the beauty of this gift is getting lost amid misinformation and outright error. In The Grace Controversy, Michael L. Brown, PhD, reveals the truth about God’s grace, separating the facts from the extreme message of the modern “grace revolution.” Brown explains:

• Why the law is good
• How to break free of legalism
• How to be victorious over sin
• How to enter into God’s rest—and run with perseverance

At a time when the church needs a fresh encounter with Jesus, the hyper-grace message is lulling many to sleep. The Grace Controversy carefully presents what the Bible says about grace, sin, and sanctification, and empowers readers to avoid compromise and live holy, victorious lives in Christ.
