#161 - Derwin Gray// Grace Changes Your Mind and Rewires Your Identity

4 min • 13 augusti 2025

Grace possesses the power to transform doubters into devoted followers, as demonstrated through the journey of James, Jesus's half-brother, who moved from skepticism to martyrdom.

• Grace breaks through doubt, remaining patient with disbelief even when familiarity blinds us to divine reality
• Jesus appeared to James after the resurrection, demonstrating that grace doesn't condemn but rather reveals itself when we're ready
• Grace completely rewired James's identity, transforming him from skeptic to church leader who identified as a servant rather than a brother
• James's commitment was so complete that he ultimately faced martyrdom, being pushed from the temple and clubbed to death rather than renouncing his faith
• The transformation of James proves that grace isn't merely a second chance but a complete restart that changes our mind, heart, and purpose
