Join Max Lucado's Bible Study through Romans
Find peace and rest in God's unbending and unending gift of grace.
Have you ever felt that you did something that could not be forgiven--that God's grace could not extend to your situation? It's easy to beat yourself up. But as the apostle Paul reveals in his letter to the Romans, God never does. His grace is always sufficient to meet your needs and cover your mistakes, missteps, and misdeeds.
Or, maybe you're stuck trying to earn God's grace...? When the world demands: achieve, succeed, earn, God says: learn on me, trust me, believe me. You don't have to accomplish or prove anything; God offers unconditional acceptance to a believing heart.
In this 40-Day study based on his bestselling book, In the Grip of Grace, Max Lucado illuminates one of the richest theological works ever penned, the book of Romans. The core idea of Romans is that we are saved by grace, through faith.
Max will guide you through this letter from Paul to the Romans, revealing what the apostle's words meant to his original readers and how they apply to you today. You will be encouraged as you listen to Max's teachings and challenged to study the book of Romans like never before!
Let's study Romans with Max Lucado
Max Lucado ushers us into this study of one of the richest theological works ever penned, the book of Romans.
The core idea of Romans is that we are saved by grace, through faith.
In this liberating study, Max focuses on several important themes:
- The reality, danger and power of sin – the deepest problem humans face (Romans 1-2).
- God's grace, which is real, amazing, available to all (Romans 3-5).
- God has set us free, but the battle with sin continues – becoming like Jesus demands continual surrender (Romans 6-8).
- We are a part of God's beautiful story – creation, fall, redemption, and restoration (Romans 9-11).
- Christians follow in Jesus' footsteps by humbly serving and sacrificially loving others (Romans 12-13).
- Christ-followers are called to live in fellowship with each other (Romans 14-16).
6 SESSIONS OF THE STUDY
Session One: The Problem We Face (Romans 1-2)

Max Lucado’s study on the Book of Romans is the inaugural study in a series called 40 Days Through the Book.

Praise for In the Grip of Grace
This book was part of my decision to go back to church after 40 years of being a non-practitioner. I am so thankful that I discovered Max Lucado; my life is now in the hands of our Lord and I have real inner peace for the first time in many years.
Ginger, verified buyer
In the Grip of Grace is an absolutely beautiful declaration that nothing can pull us from the grip of God's grace. It's a timeless message. Max Lucado writes as an every day believer who struggles with believing that grace never stops covering us. He's encouraging, truthful, and understanding. I was deeply encouraged by this book.
