Scandalous Grace
: A Book For Tired Christians Seeking Rest

Scandalous Grace reveals God’s stubborn delight in His enemies–how He doesn’t just forgive us but actually enjoys us with an unleashed, undomesticated, and scandalous grace first shown on the pages of the Old Testament. Grace is a dangerous topic. We want to domesticate it, calm it down, and stuff it into a blue blazer and a pair of khakis. But biblical grace—or charis—doesn’t like to settle down. Grace is a dangerous topic because the Bible is a dangerous book. Scandalous Grace flows from the author’s half dozen years of teaching the Old Testament to college students. You might think that would produce a book about judgment – but he shows how every character, every event, every single page of the Old Testament bleeds grace. Rather than looking for heroes to emulate – readers discover a gracious God who loves to redeem the unredeemable.
