What About Grace?

To hear Scripture functionally, we must submit to the written text, exactly as it is presented to us by the original authors for the sole purpose of instruction. In Episode 11: Functionality Redux, Noël Neff joined me to discuss the question: If we are to hear Scripture functionally, are we also supposed to live functionally? Noël is my guest again today. She will read from Ephesians chapter 2 (v. 1-10) and follow up on this question with a new set of questions: If it is salvific to live functionally, what role does Grace play in the Biblical text? Also, are we as hearers of Scripture capable of extending this grace to others?
