Explosive, pervasive, sweet, powerful, relentless, amazing, devastating, raw, beautiful, are all words to describe a single reality: Grace.
Grace is not flat or one-dimensional. It is a jewel with many facets and held up against the light grace is absolutely captivating. Joe Coffey and Bob Bevington, the authors of Red Like Blood, have been captivated by the wonder and the power of grace. Red Like Blood is an attempt to hold that jewel in such a way that it catches the light and moves into your soul like a flood.
Have you noticed that grace is most likely to flow into cracks formed by brokenness over our sin or circumstances? In Red Like Blood you will find story after story of brokenness and the grace that entered in. Some stories are from Joe, a pastor's kid turned pastor. Some are from Bob, a prodigal come home. And some are from the many inspiring characters they have met along the way. The stories are often raw and always brutally transparent. Because wherever real grace flows, real brokenness was there first.
My guest on the program today will be Bob Bevington. Bob semi-retired from optometry ten years ago. He has has co-authored two other books with his mentor, Jerry Bridges.
