It's full of great quotes that can stand on their own and of course the subject "grace" is something that members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints haven't, until recently the past several years , given a lot of attention to. Can't stress that enough. Keep up the great work! Still worth reading of course, but I wish it were at least twice as long. Keish rated it liked it Nov 10, Dew has filled in the gaps that are so greatly needed to come to know how grace works and is involved in our day lives.
The last nine pages contain some of the best advice. Read it and pass it on. Mar 28, Ryan Stoddard rated it it was amazing Shelves: If you read something from Sheri Dew you can pretty much guarantee that it will be powerful and that you almost have to underline every sentence. This is no exception.

The message is short, but the impact lasting and inspiring. Grace is a subject that I have often neglected and taken for granted.
This book dramatically shifted my perspective and opened my understanding and knowledge on this miraculous doctrine. Jun 01, Melanie rated it really liked it Shelves: I was pleasantly surprised by this book.
Amazed by Grace
It's a small volume, so I expected a fluffy book filled with feel-good quotes. Instead it's a pithy discussion of grace and what it means to be a disciple. I have read some of the material before in Sheri Dew's talks at Women's Conference, so it's not all new material, but it is a worthwhile read. Mar 09, Lenora rated it it was amazing. Great insight and explanation on Grace and a recommended read in my books. Loved the layout of the book, artwork, quotes and real life examples. Also a great help to me as I prepare my lesson on- what is grace - for the YW in my ward. Jul 05, Lynn rated it it was amazing.
This is a book I will again and again and again--there is so much to absorb about the enabling power that we call grace. Dec 12, Ashley rated it it was amazing Shelves: I'm pretty darn impressed with this little powerhouse of a book. Makes me want to read it again and do my own study of grace and the love the Savior has for all of us. Jan 14, Danielle rated it it was amazing.
Short but filled with wonderful quotes and plenty to think about. Sherri Dew has done it again. May 01, Tebafin rated it it was amazing. Jan 02, Allyson rated it it was amazing. I just reread this book, it's been a few years. This has practical tools for accessing the grace of the Savior. Sheri Dew is inspiring. Mar 02, Heather rated it it was amazing Shelves: This little book helped me to think about that more clearly. I have a greater love for the Savior, a greater appreciation for covenants, a greater desire to study and learn about this power, and a greater I LOVED this book!
I have a greater love for the Savior, a greater appreciation for covenants, a greater desire to study and learn about this power, and a greater desire to be a better disciple of Jesus Christ! Here are a few of my favorite quotes: I did thousands of years ago. The bitterness was simply gone p.
It is this power that ultimately enables us to do what we came to earth to do. Grace is divine enabling power p. None of us are capable of doing our very best work or being our very best selves or giving our very best effort constantly, without variation. We would get tired, be sad, lose our patience, hurt each other, get enamored with the superficiality of the world, succumb to pride, and basically have to engage in an exhausting, unrelenting kind of hand-to-hand combat with the natural man.
We may receive His grace before, during, and after the time when we expend our own efforts p. Justice demands, however, that none of this happen without our willing agreement and participation…. Thus, salvation is certainly not the result of divine whim, but neither does it happen by divine will alone Elder D. None of us will stay here long. To covenants, eternal relationships, our knowledge of truth, and the blessings that come from devotion to the Lord?
And those blessings are remarkable p. We can never earn exaltation. But we can indicate by the choices we make and the way we live our lives that we want to be part of the kingdom of God more than we want anything else. And that is discipleship p. He has carried me and healed my heart again and again p. Our only chance to purify our hearts, subdue our weaknesses, and avoid the adversary.
Our only chance to obtain redemption and exaltation. Our only chance to find peace and happiness in this life and eternal life in the world to come. The Lord knows the way because He is the way. He is our only chance for successfully negotiating mortality. I do stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers us. Mar 07, Scribs rated it it was amazing. It is not suddenly unleashed when we sin or need help. The flow of diving help is continuous, everywhere present, waiting for us to seek help. If you don't understand Grace, you don't understand why we are here: It is "Ultimately, for every once of us, the Savior is our only chance.
It is God's grace that underlies all thing, [and] Without it there would be nothing; with it there is everything. Worth reading and re-reading. Jul 05, JaLee rated it it was amazing. Hands down one of my most favorite books, I have already read it twice and I have had it for a year or so. I love Sheri Dew she has a perspective that I wish I had about all things gospel related.

This has become for me a reference book of sorts. It's full of great quotes that can stand on their own and of course the subject "grace" is something that members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints haven't, until recently the past several years , given a lot of attention to. She offer Hands down one of my most favorite books, I have already read it twice and I have had it for a year or so.
She offers insights to help the reader understand grace and why we need to talk about it and study it; it is an integral part of the gospel that we must understand, if for no other reason than to give us a bit of peace!
Janet Walker (Author of Amazed By Her Grace)
I've been anticipating this book for a while and received a copy for Christmas. I didn't realize it was such a short book--you can read it easily in one sitting. I also didn't realize that this book is just a copy of her well-known talk about grace put in book format. I read this same talk a while ago in the BYU magazine, I think and loved it so much that I tore it out of the magazine to save in my files. So at least now I have a much prettier and nicer copy of this talk to reference. It has s I've been anticipating this book for a while and received a copy for Christmas.
It has some really great insights about grace--what grace really is, how grace can make a difference in our lives, how Christ makes his power available to us, and what we have to do to access that power. This is a great talk that I will surely read and study again. I'm amazed by Sheri Dew. What a beautiful example of a righteous woman.
Amazed By Her Grace
She fills you up with love and appreciation for the Grace of God through her eloquent writing and speaking. If we could just keep that feeling with us every hour of every day, what a comfort and blessing it would be. She has not had a "piece of cake" life. We all have trials and most of us would not want to walk in another's shoes either. But I love where her heart is, in spite of life's many challenges and disappointments. Apr 23, T. I really enjoyed Sheri's insight and stories. I found myself stopping to memorize nuggets of wisdom throughout the book. The only disappointing part?
This is really short! Shorter still as the page count includes a full-page meme for every three pages of writing. I really wanted more! I felt like I was just settling into really understand the topic when the book came to an abrupt end. Still worth reading of course, but I wish it were at least twice as long. Jan 22, Jodi rated it it was amazing. I adore Sheri Dew! She is as gifted a writer as she is a speaker. This book is chockfull of insight, wisdom, and practical application.
I love her humor and her willingness to share personal recollections. This is a book I will have to read over and over again. It is impossible to absorb it all in one reading! This book though small is packed with some pretty amazing stuff! I picked it up because I love Sheri Dew and because it would be a quick read but got way more than I bargained for!
I LOVE, love, loved this book. I feel I can now define what Grace is, I can say that I am edified by reading this book and have a greater appreciation and reverence for my Savoir and the gift of His grace.
