    I just finished reading Captured by Grace: No One is Beyond the Reach of a Loving God by Dr. David Jeremiah and I believe this book was absolutely fantastic. It is just what I needed at this time in my life. I'm a fairly new Christian, I still have few questions, and there many things I just don't understand. I find it difficult to put all my faith in someone I've never known. This book changed that, I say it changed me completely, but it has opened a new door, and it has changed my outlook on life.

    Dr. Jeremiah uses the song 'Amazing Grace' to help really understand the grace of God and what is and what it can do. The book is broken into three sections; Grace in the past, present, and future which I think was great. It really gave me a well-rounded idea of what Grace really is. Dr.Jeremiah also takes you through the journey of Paul and John Newton's life and how they came to be captured by grace and how they brought grace to others.

    Through this book I have learned what grace really is. It means that I am forgiven no matter how great my sins are, it means that I am loved and am precious to God just as everyone else it.

    I've never really believe in God, or Grace or anything growing up. I resented it. I recently I've began to accept it and learn about it, this book really was the final push to really believing it all and putting my faith in Him.

    As a new believer this book was quite insightful and powerful. I'm not sure if it will have the same affect on someone who has been a Christian for years, but I do think it would refresh their memory of what Grace is, I do believe it would change your perspective on it all.

    I definitely recommend this book to all Christians, whether they are new believers or old-time believers. Every non-believer should read it as well, just so they can understand what Grace and Gad is all about.

    I'm really happy I received this book to review. I'm lending to a friend to read then reading it all over again.

    I've learned and read much about grace in these past ten years, but I was pleasantly surprised by all of the new insights that I gained while reading Dr. David Jeremiah's Captured by Grace.

    Dr. Jeremiah, using the lyrics of the hymn "Amazing Grace" as his framework, explores the biblical teachings of grace and their implications in our heart, soul, and daily lives. What delighted me was they way that he did this using the life stories of the hymn's author, John Newton, and the Apostle Paul, the author of most of the New Testament's teachings on grace.

    Learning the history of the familiar hymn and seeing grace lived out in the lives of these two men of faith allowed the teachings have more of an impact on my heart and spirit.

    Captured by Grace is an easy, refreshing read that managed to encourage and convict.

    Booksneeze.com provided me with a free copy of Dr. David Jeremiah's Captured by Grace in exchange for my honest review.

    I would consider this a great tool for any and all bible study groups. There are many very valuable points made for all of lifes tenets and these based on scripture. The references are very clear and distinct and easy to read and comprehend.

    Captured by Grace, written by David Jeremiah and published by Thomas Nelson, Nashville, 2006, is powerful description of God's grace. Using the life stories of John Newton and the apostle Paul, Jeremiah gives the reader a striking picture of how God's grace pursues, forgives, preserves, and restores us. Interwoven into the narrative are stanzas from John Newton's hymn, "Amazing Grace." Dr. Jeremiah divides his book into three main sections: "Grace for the Past," "Grace for the Present," and "Grace for the Future." Each chapter within the main divisions is subtitled with a line from the beloved "Amazing Grace." The prelude, as Jeremiah calls it, to Captured by Grace< is a stirring account of Saul being pursued by God as he persecutes Christians prior to his conversion, and of Newton being brought under conviction by God as he engages in the slave trade. The parallel accounts of Newton and Paul (formerly Saul) and the demonstrations of God's grace in their lives throughout this book leave the reader in tears and in awe of so mighty and merciful a God. There are also examples of other people "captured" by God's grace, and each example is compelling to read. At the end of each chapter is a brief devotional passage, which would be helpful as a Bible study. Those who read Captured by Grace will be uplifted, comforted, and amazed, not by the book itself, but by our great Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

    This is not a book to be read quickly. I normally zip through books in a very short time; however, Captured by Grace required more thought, mediation and just time to savor the truths Dr. Jeremiah was writing. Its easy for us to take Gods grace for granted. For most of us life is not particularly dramatic, certainly not like that of John Newton and the apostle Paul, and we often dont notice His grace. This book will make you stop and think about the gift of Gods grace in your own life.His comparison of mercy and grace give a clear distinction between the two and makes both easy to understand. i.e. Mercy runs to forgive the Prodigal Son. Grace throws a party with every extravagance. I found myself meditating on each of the comparisons listed and finding a new perspective on both mercy and grace.Dr. Jeremiah gives us two powerful accounts of grace and how grace pursues us in the lives of John Newton and the apostle Paul. He goes on to point out that not only John Newton and the apostle Paul experienced grace; we also experience grace. We all face crises in our lives and it is Gods grace that brings us through those times. The author shows us, verifying it by scripture, that Gods grace produces power, perspective, perseverance and praise.We all need Gods grace for the past, for the present and for the future just as the author points out so clearly. This is a book rooted in Gods Word and gives us a fresh understanding of Gods grace. I highly recommend it to you.I received a free copy of this book from the publisher through Booksneeze.com book review bloggers. I was not required to write a positive review.
