Grace Morph: A Pastor's Journey from Legalism to Grace - Paperback

by Tim S. Estes (Author)

Religion can be a two-edged sword! Handled correctly, it brings peace. Handled incorrectly and religion can also be harsh and unsettling, especially when man adds his complex mandates to the text. If you were raised in an environment of religious rules, especially with no valid explanation from scripture, this book is for you! Grace Morph will ignite the metamorphosis of God's destiny for your life and initiate a transformation freeing the reader from the bondage of legalism into the glorious freedom of grace! Estes weaves his own epic journey, including the pain of unanswered questions as a child, of leaving popularity within a denomination as a young man and questing through the struggles of transition in maturity, to find the simplicity that is in Christ. After fifteen years in the making, time has yielded ample proof of this treatise, as Tim and Tricia have ministered to thousands of people, including pastors and leaders, helping them to know Jesus with a biblio-centric approach to life! Tim and Tricia Estes have spent most of their lives serving the city of Siloam Springs, Arkansas and the surrounding area. With more than thirty years of pastoral and chaplaincy ministry, Tim brings a wealth of experience to this writing. His five grandchildren affectionately call him Bop-Bop. Tim is recognized as a civic leader and has held several leadership positions with a variety of entities including a Northwest Regional Hospital, Chamber of Commerce, Rotary International, and more. For a decade Tim wrote a weekly religious column in his local newspaper. Tim and Tricia have ministered around the world in a variety of venues. An outdoor enthusiast, Tim has a collection of memories from decades of fishing and hunting with his buddies across the United States and Canada.
