Best Books on Grace

The best books on grace are not simply about how our sins get forgiven through Jesus’ finished work on the cross. The best books on grace tell the full gospel message. The full gospel communicates that we also died with Christ and have been made alive in Christ. We have a new identity. We are now free from the bondage of sin and death, the bondage to perform, and the bondage of the law.

Here are 10 of the best books that tell the full gospel message of grace.

THE REST OF THE GOSPEL by Dan Stone & David Gregory

“Do I have life ‘more abundant’?” That’s a question millions of Christians have asked down through the ages. Dan Stone asked that question during a time of spiritual frustration in his own life and God answered by showing Dan he had been living only a part of the gospel message. Dan’s search led him to discover the truth of “Christ in you” as “the rest of the gospel” that most Christians overlook.

Readers who are hungry for a deeper experience with God will resonate with Dan’s discovery of “the rest of the gospel,” which is indeed rest for everyone who is willing to finally let go and let God.

THE GRACE MESSAGE by Andrew Farley

Grace. It’s a word we all know, yet do we really believe in God’s grace?

Grace is both essential and dazzling. It raises eyebrows. It begs questions. Grace turns everything upside down.

A radical and inspiring book, The Grace Message invites you to get in on the best flavor of Christianity and celebrate the good news of the Gospel like never before. Andrew Farley’s no-nonsense straight talk will awaken you to a revolutionary perspective every healthy Christian should have.

Life is too short to miss out on God’s best, and what you don’t know about God’s grace can hinder you from experiencing Jesus in every area of your life. So, if you’ve been weighed down by ruthless religion or you’ve been searching for that high-octane version of the Gospel that you know must exist, this is it.

Get ready to be boosted into a remarkable new confidence. This thought-provoking book will challenge you to dismiss the lies you’ve believed and to make up your own mind about how big God’s grace really is.

 

THE CURE by John Lynch, Bruce McNicol, & Bill Thrall

The Cure gives the diagnosis of this century’s religious obsession with sin-management. It has poisoned the Church, obscuring the Original Good News and sending millions away, wounded, angry and cynical, from nearly any organized expression of faith. This newly designed format of The Cure offers an authentic experience in Christ that frees some from a self-rewarded righteousness, and others from a beaten-down striving for a righteousness they can never seem to attain.

The Cure infuses a relational theology of grace and identity, which alone can heal, free and create sustainable, genuine, loving, life-giving communities. 

 

Many people would be surprised to learn that God’s view of them is much greater than their own. Ralph Harris, founder and President of LifeCourse Ministries, leads readers to experience a deeply satisfying, joyful relationship with Christ as they embrace what God thinks of them―that they are holy, righteous, blameless, and lovable.

With easily communicated biblical knowledge and examples of God’s grace, Harris turns readers toward the love affair with God they were made for. Revealing and unique insights help readers:

  • exchange fear and obligation for delight and devotion

  • recognize the remarkable role and strength of the Holy Spirit in their daily lives

  • view their status as a new creation as the new normal―and live accordingly!

Readers will encounter wisdom, direction, and encouragement as they rest in God’s truth and mercy, develop a sincere partnership with Christ, and live as confident children of God.

 

CLASSIC CHRISTIANITY by Bob George

The breakthrough book that has helped over half a million Christians worldwide since 1989!

Classic Christianity―Bob George’s eye-opening distillation of the life-transforming truths of the gospel―now has a fresh cover and interior that reflect the up-to-the-minute relevance of its message.

Like so many Christians, Bob George started out in love with Jesus, only to end up feeling disappointed and empty. Drawing on his struggles and his teaching and counseling experience, Bob cuts to the heart of believers’ common questions…

  • Doesn’t God expect me to clean up my act before I approach Him?

  • I know God loves me―but does He accept me?

  • I’m saved and forgiven… do I just wait for heaven now?

In Classic Christianity, believers will see the way back to the life Jesus provided―a life set free from the law’s bondage, lived in the newness of the Spirit, and secure in the Father’s affection.

 

GRACE WALK by Steve McVey

The over 250,000-selling Grace Walk has helped thousands of believers leave behind the "manic-depressive" Christian walk: either running around trying to perform to be acceptable to God--or thinking they've failed Him again and wondering if they'll ever measure up.
Living the grace walk gets Christians off this religious roller coaster. Using his own journey from legalism into grace, Steve McVey illustrates the foundational, biblical truths of who believers are in Jesus Christ and how they can let Him live His life through them each day.
As they experience their identity in Jesus Christ, Christians will come to know "Amazing Grace" as not just a song but as their true way of life.

 

LIFETIME GUARANTEE by Bill Gillham

In Lifetime Guarantee (more than 100,000 copies sold), Bill Gillham writes of his struggle to live a life of victory in Christ, “After 12 years…I finally crashed and burned. That was the best thing the Lord could have ever let happen to me.”

As a professor, counselor, and radio host, Gillham heard countless stories of people who tried to live the Christian life but repeatedly failed. Then he realized that only one person can live like Christ―Jesus Himself―and that He wants to live His life through each and every believer.

Readers will appreciate Gillham’s gut-honest and encouraging tone as they discover…

  • the root of their problems―the techniques they have developed for satisfying their needs for love and self-esteem

  • the key to victory―their true identity in Christ

  • God’s goal for their lives―conformity to Christ’s image as He lives through them

 

SIMPLE GOSPEL, SIMPLY GRACE by Bob Christopher

"We're all natural-born legalists," says author Bob Christopher. "We try to live for God, but it's impossible to do."

Why? Because all our efforts and ideas are based on the same fear-based, guilt-driven plot line: Try harder. As you've undoubtedly noticed, it just doesn't work.

Simple Gospel, Simply Grace showcases an alternative, which is actually God's original plan: Everything you're trying to achieve in the Christian life has already been given to you—from God, by grace, in Christ.

Do you struggle to receive what God has freely given? How can you begin to experience true freedom, assurance of your forgiveness, and victory over sin? How can the power that raised Jesus from the dead enable you to live and love the way He did?

You'll discover the answers in this crystal-clear portrayal of the simple gospel—which is simply grace.

 

JESUS PLUS NOTHING = EVERYTHING by Tullian Tchividgian

It’s so easy to forget what the Christian faith is all about. We struggle so much, work so hard, and fail so often that we frequently sense something in the equation of life must be missing. Tullian Tchividjian argues that what we are missing is the gospel—a fuller, more powerful understanding of what the finished work of Jesus means for everyday life.

During a year of great turmoil, Pastor Tchividjian discovered the power of the gospel in his own life. Sharing his story of how Jesus became more real to him, Tchividjian delves deeply into the fundamentals of the faith, explaining the implications of Christ’s sufficiency, a revelation that sets us free and keeps us anchored through life’s storms. Ultimately, Tchividjian reminds us that Jesus is the whole of the equation as he boldly proclaims that Jesus plus nothing really is everything.

 

“Grace opens a person’s ears to hear God. In the grace walk, I have experienced a growing desire to know God - period. As I have come to know Him more intimately, I have discovered what He wants me to do without the struggles that once characterized my performance-based lifestyle.”

- Steve McVey (Grace Walk)
