This was a great short read. I listened to the audio book in one day. Nothing new but still something I need to be reminded of daily. True to God's word and to his gracious character. I didn't realize until after reading it that it is excerpts from a book called Grace Is Greater, which is now on my reading list. I never cease to be amazed by God's grace and love hearing stories of others who have experienced it as well.

I read the paperback version. The book helps us to see the practical application of grace in our lives. The author talks about hindrances to grace including the ways we try to avoid the regret that leads to repentance and grace. I appreciated his personal examples to illustrate his points. I would be interested in reading more of his work.

This book was so impactful for me in the current stage of life I am in. It is short, but powerful! It teaches you that no sin is too big for God’s grace. I am so glad Kyle got personal in this, because he is not just putting on the face of being a perfect person. He shows he is real, and that God gives grace to real people in very real situations. Highly recommend.

Surprised

I wasn’t sure what to expect as grace is something special for me. But, this book did surprise me in its helpfulness and transparency. I enjoyed it.

Contiene muchísimos ejemplos personales y anécdotas para mi gusto sin embargo debo reconocer que son útiles para comprender los conceptos que el autor presenta. Es un libro corto y de fácil lectura.

First story of the book is centered around Halloween, which I didn't love.

But a quote I absolutely love is “If the biggest sinner you know isn’t you, than you don’t know yourself very well.” - Jean Larroux
