About this audiobook
Grace is everywhere, all around us, all of the time. We only need the ears to hear it and the eyes to see it. It is much easier and perhaps more helpful to describe what grace feels like through stories and images that illustrate the varied ways grace is experienced when encountered in the wild, than it is to attempt to define it definitively, to trap it, and cage it. Maybe that’s why Jesus was so fond of parables: nothing describes the indescribable like a memorable yarn.Sin Boldly: A Field Guide for Grace is a collection of stories about the author's experiences with grace—in ridiculous moments and in those that seem trivial but are anything but; in wacky adventures and quiet walks; with family and with strangers; in bars, nightclubs, the occasional house of worship, and in her own home; and through conversations with people—some famous and some not—who have introduced her to grace in new ways that in turn have shaped her faith and the way she tries to live it.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I am notorious for reading the first 30 pages of a book and putting it aside. This book I completed within 30 hours of purchasing. It is excellent. Falsani shares the truth of grace (in ways I could never write - maybe even think) through short accounts of her life - normal life and the active pursuit of experiencing grace for writing this book. The title comes from a letter from Martin Luther. Unfortunately, too many evangelicals will freak out about the title and miss the meaning.I encourage people to drink in this book.
