Trailblazers – Walking the Path of Commitment

In our Trailblazers series, we’re exploring what it means to go “all in” for Jesus and His mission. Just like trailblazers forge paths for others, we’re called to commit fully to following Christ, serving others, and building His Kingdom. This series serves as the foundation for our membership class, and we’d love for all our regular attenders to join us each week as we take this important journey together. Let’s walk the path of faith, purpose, and commitment as a church family!

Day 5: Embracing Salvation as a Gift of Grace

Salvation is a gift of grace through faith in Jesus Christ, not something we can earn through our works. This understanding transforms our response to God’s love, leading us to live lives of discipleship, evangelism, and good works. Our actions are not attempts to earn salvation but are reflections of our gratitude and love for God. By embracing salvation as a gift, we are freed from the burden of trying to earn God’s favor and can instead focus on living lives that honor Him and share His love with others.

“For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9, ESV)

Reflection: How does understanding salvation as a gift of grace change your perspective on your relationship with God? What specific actions can you take today to reflect your gratitude for this gift?
