Publisher's Description
This volume was created to benefit any seeker wishing to read user-friendly explanations for some theological concepts that are, frankly, challenging for all of us, such as justification, sanctification, apocalypse, or grace. What sets these definitions apart is that they are offered in concise, accessible, devotional-style essays. The reflections consider translation choices from the original Greek or Hebrew, as well as offering useful comparisons to related biblical passages. If you are engaged in Bible study, on your own or in a class, Glossary of Grace, will enrich your experience.

“Rhonda Kindig is clearly in love with the Bible and the God of grace revealed therein. With accessible (and whimsical) prose, she plumbs the evocative nuances of the original languages in brief reflections piquing curiosity for further word study. Newcomers to congregational life soon discover that signing on with Jesus sometimes feels like learning a whole new language. Kindig, a lifelong educator, is a trusty glossary guide toward faithfulness and fluency.”
“Emily Dickenson said it best: ‘I know nothing in the world that has as much power as a word.’ Rhonda Kindig, in her biblical teaching and in this new book, concurs dramatically! Always the ‘word’ with her, whether Greek, Aramaic, or the King’s English, she is the master at allowing students and her readers to discern Scripture’s meaning through the word. We’ll all be captivated by this one!”
“In Glossary of Grace, Rhonda Kindig turns would-be scholarly lectures into a spiritual conversation that proves both a comforting and an enlightening read. Through her fascination with words and the word of God, plus her extensive knowledge of Hebrew, Greek, and Latin, these essays not only enrich an understanding of biblical vocabulary but also bring to light abundant examples of God’s grace.”
“Rhonda Kindig is a gifted student of the languages of the Scriptures, but above all, she is a teacher. She interprets the biblical language so that we can connect with each other and with God. She helps us delve into the spiritual depths of truth about God in her fifty-one explorations of major biblical terms. She gives them context with a surprisingly short and rich explanation that is easily understood. Glossary of Grace is a must for everyone’s library.”
“Once again Rhonda Kindig has given us her unique combination of faith, scholarship, and devotion in Glossary of Grace. This book makes esoteric terms understandable. As one who regularly interacts with ‘readers’ in Bible study, Kindig always connects in a personal way. It is her gift; thanks be to God!”
