Book Description
This practical guide to growing in grace is rooted in the Bible’s teaching on ‘grace,’ especially as it is revealed in the Lord Jesus Christ. By examining his role as our prophet, priest, and king we will see not only the ways in which he displayed God’s grace during his earthly ministry, but also how he governs and guides us as we grow in grace today.

Zack Groff –
Written for readers who are generally unfamiliar with Reformed Christian theology, this is a clear and thoughtful treatment of an important theme of faith and practice: what it means to “grow in grace.” Master explores the theme of Christian growth/maturity by considering Christ and what it means for believers to be Christlike. Along the way, Master ably presents Christ in His offices of prophet, priest, and king; keeps Scripture at the center of the discussion; exhorts his readers to recognize the indispensability of the church in the life of the believer; briefly explains the sacraments; and situates suffering and hope as important instruments in the Christian life. This is a great book, both as an introduction to beginners and as a reminder to longtime believers.
