A Sign Your Growing in Grace

One of the many things I have enjoyed reading on Twitter the last couple weeks have been Scotty Smith's series "A Sign Your Growing in Grace". I simply want to put some of my favorites on here, they've been great to think about and read. Enjoy!



A sign you’re growing in grace is less theological arrogance & greater appreciation for diversity in the Body of Christ.
