The Grace List
by Tim Kimmel
| The Obedience-based Life | vs. | The Grace-based Life |
| You live to impress God | vs. | You live to trust God |
| A performance | vs. | A relationship |
| A duty | vs. | A delight |
| Predictable | vs. | Fluid |
| Promotes fear | vs. | Promotes faith |
| Creates worry | vs. | Creates calm |
| Masked | vs. | Transparent |
| Critical Spirit | vs. | Compassionate Spirit |
| Sense a lot of guilt | vs. | Sense a lot of freedom |
| Inclines you towards pridefulness | vs. | Inclines you towards humility |
| Outside-in management | vs. | Inside-out surrender |
| For “church” people | vs. | For everybody |
| More natural | vs. | More supernatural |
| Focuses on being good | vs. | Focuses on being connected |
| Lends itself to self-righteousness | vs. |
Lends itself to organic obedience
Praying He makes me a grace-based live-er, more and more. I need it. And so does my family!
"And from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace." -John 1:16
