Graciousness: Tempering Truth with Love

“John Crotts has written a remarkable book about an unremarkable topicgraciousness. There is more here than appropriate exhortations to gracious conduct. Crotts diagnoses the disease of ungraciousness and applies the strong medicine of heart examination, repentance, and full embrace of the gospel. Then he leads the reader into deeper insight into graciousness in our speech, our actions, and the communities we develop. Read this book; let it read you.”

“There is a well of wisdom in this book on how to adorn your commitment to the truth with love, humility, and graciousness. Read this book and then give it away.”

“Truth matters. But as the apostle Paul wrote, we must always speak the truth in love. For the Christian, our demeanor is just as important as our words. John Crotts helpfully reminds us that graciousness is at the very heart of the Christian life and is essential to the health of the church. Graciousness is an articulate, biblical, and pastoral reflection on graciousness and how Gods people can cultivate this character in their life. Crottss message is urgently needed in the church and deserves careful consideration by any disciple who treasures the grace of God.”
