Grace, Not Perfection Bible Study Guide: Embracing Simplicity, Celebrating Joy

Learn to let go of your daily toil towards perfection and fall into the lasting freedom of God's grace.

As a wife, new mother, business owner, and designer, Emily Ley reached a point when she suddenly realized she couldn't do it all. She needed to simplify her life, organize her days, and prioritize her priorities. She realized that she had been holding herself to a standard of perfection, when what God was really calling her to do was accept the welcoming embrace of his grace.

In this four-session video-based study (DVD/video streaming sold separately), Emily--author of A Simplified Life­--describes the journey that led to her pursuing a life that allowed her to breathe, laugh, and grow. Along the way, she'll take you and your group through strategies to simplify your lives. Because God so abundantly pours out grace on us, we can surely extend grace to ourselves!
