Award-winning author Philip Yancey has a way of toppling convention and getting at the truth. In "What's So Amazing About Grace?", he turns his gift for inquiry to that most basic of all Christian tenets-grace. Grace is the church's great gift to the world, says Yancey. But do Christians really understand grace-and if we do, then why do we experience and show so little of it? Yancey sets grace in the midst of life's stark, often brutal realities to help readers discover the power of God's unrelenting love for sinners. This study guide will help readers apply the discoveries and challenges contained in Yancey's newest and most personal book.

First line

En mi libro El Jesus que nunca conoci, contaba un relato de lavida real que por mucho tiempo ha permanecido en mi mente.

From the rear cover

In 1987, an IRA bomb buried Gordon Wilson and his twenty-year-old daughter beneath five feet of rubble. Gordon alone survived. And forgave. He said of the bombers, 'I have lost my daughter, but I bear no grudge...I shall pray, tonight and every night, that God will forgive them.' His words caught the media's ears---and out of one man's grief, the world got a glimpse of grace. Grace is the church's great distinction. It's the one thing the world cannot duplicate, and the one thing it craves above all else---for only grace can bring hope and transformation to a jaded world. In this book, award-winning author Philip Yancey explores grace at street level. If grace is God's love for the undeserving, he asks, then what does it look like in action? And if Christians are its sole dispensers, then how are we doing at lavishing grace on a world that knows far more of cruelty and unforgiveness than it does of mercy? Grace does not excuse sin, says Yancey, but it treasures the sinner. True grace is shocking, scandalous. It shakes our conventional way of thought with its insistence on getting close to sinners and touching them with mercy and hope.
