It has been a long time since I have read a book that has portrayed such an important topic in such a progressive manor. I found myself stopping numerous times through the first 50 pages wondering if I had understood what the author was saying-not because this is a hard book to read, but because it was so refreshing. I found myself reflecting on the truthful yet raw way Paul Zahl articulates his points on the law, grace, and practical living. With edgy and un-conventional terminology, Zahl's straightforward approach to explaining the origin and application of the law and grace are both informative and invigorating. Context is key with this book. This work operates as a cohesive unit, and each chapter builds upon the other forming a thesis on grace that is long overdue. Therefore, it is exceedingly important that the reader explores the entire piece.
