This week in the Detroit Church of Christ, Ed Anton and his wife Deb, visiting from the Boston Church, share a lesson called 'The Greatest Gift'. Ed, reading from 1st and 2nd Corinthians, helps us to understand one of the greatest gifts from God: His Grace. We learn how the gift of grace should be thought of as a circular relationship of Gift, Gratitude, and Generosity. How it is not just receiving the gift of grace, but what follows. He challenges us to examine our view of grace and our response to the grace we have been given.
