Summary: The whole of the Gospel summed up in one, easy-to-read book!
Comment: It took me several years to finally grasp the concept of grace. Several men's retreats and a couple of books later, I think I finally got it! Thanks, in part, to Chuck Swindoll's "Grace Awakening."
This book is a precious jewel. I would recommend it to everyone who is searching for purpose in life and even to those who think they've found it. It is a "must read" for anyone who claims to be a Christian.
Swindoll builds a solid foundation for the Christian faith and the cornerstone is the grace of God, displayed to humankind through His Son, Jesus. If people could just begin to understand the simplicity of the gospel, they would jump for joy and tell everyone they know about how liberating it is. That's the message of this book. Swindoll attempts to convey the gospel's simplicity. He issues a call for all people to be awakened to this simple truth. That is, we are all sinners in need of a gracious and loving God. That kind of God is the One written about in the Bible. He is forgiving and desires to show us His mercy. In fact, He already has by sacrificing His own Son. Beyond that One sacrificial act, by a holy and just God, there is absolutely NOTHING we can do, but to accept His gracious offer!
It's really that simple. What a liberating truth to finally have a firm hold of! I encourage you to purchase this book and to search the Scriptures, to see for yourself. My hope is that you will find freedom, just as I have, through the liberating truth of this simplistic message. Furthermore, I recommend a second book as a follow-up: "In the Grip of Grace" by Max Lucado. Happy reading!

Summary: Read it, and give a copy to everyone you care about
Comment: Charles Swindoll has hit the nail on the head about what's wrong with religion today: Legalism. His refreashing look at God's grace is simple and yet so profound. I have read the book 3 times already and plan to read it many more. The language is simple, the parables enlightening, and the message so very important. I feel that Swindoll accurately brings to life Bible text and makes God's message of grace easy for us to understand. Beware: legalists wont like this book.

Summary: Be the Person God Created You to Be!
Comment: The purpose of Grace Awakening is clear: God's grace gives us the freedom to be ourselves and to not smother others so much that we get in God's way for their lives!
Among the many excellent points Swindoll covers include:
1. Jesus focused on the heart instead of a list of requirements.
2. Strategies for resisting legalism.
3. Principles of disagreeing agreeably.
4. Working in the flesh is unacceptable to the Lord.
5. Characteristics of those who display grace to others.
6. Be careful of comparing yourself to others!
7. While other people may be impressed with us, God isn't!
8. Areas that can keep us from growing in grace.
An excellent and highly recommended book, allow God to work through you to extend grace to others!
