Grace Culture - Teen Bible Study Book: Transformed by the Love of Jesus

What kind of culture do you want to live in?

Everyone has a story. Some stories have more detours, starts and stops, and breakdowns than others. What happens when our stories include places along the way that we're not proud of? Do we cancel ourselves? Does God cancel us? This is where we need a culture change. Not one where we dismiss ourselves and others, but one filled with grace. It is God's grace that transforms lives.

We can be agents of creating a culture that doesn't cancel people when they stumble, but one that creates opportunities for restoration. God never gives up on us. His every desire is for us to be restored and fruitful for the gospel. This is the heart of grace culture--to be agents of Jesus's transforming love to a hurting world. In this 6-session Bible study, author D.A. Horton draws from his own life story to show students how God can work through their unique experiences to reveal a life transformed by the love of Jesus Christ.
