Welcome to the Paul Tripp podcast, where pastor and bestselling author Dr. Paul David Tripp

connects the transforming power of Jesus Christ to everyday life. God's grace doesn't merely forgive us

of sin. It also delivers us from sin, both internally and externally. In this week's Connecting

clip of the week, Paul and Shelby discuss the delivering grace of God. To hear more of Paul and

Shelby's conversation on grace, check out the Connecting Podcast episode 30 wherever you listen to
