This book is a poetic reading of the dialogical philosophy of martin buber. my reading of martin buber takes me to this principal insight: god is not in heaven nor on earth. god is not above nor below. not within and not without. not in the soul or in the flesh. god is not an entity anywhere: god is the between of an i and a thou. these pages are not an academic study in the strict sense. my meditations in this book are not a literal description of buber’s philosophy, for buber would never have approved of taking his words in any way other than in dialogue. buber wrote in-dialogue with the reader, and i read buber in the poetic philosophy of his words. in other words: we can say that the essential thinking in martin buber’s philosophy is that the presence of god in us is always enacted as the presence of god between us. god, like love, like poetry, is a deed we do. the god-deed is actualized not in rituals or temples, but in the practices of the sacraments of the neighbor. for there is nothing we can predicate of god, but we can still meet god in the embrace of the neighbor. we meet god as we meet with one another in genuine relationship. god is not in the relationship, god is the relationship. god is no-thing, but there is nothing that isn't god in the between of an i and a thou.

As a society, we see grace as a permission to further our own agendas, in one-dimensional terms, or simply what Jesus has extended. Natasha R. Bailey, who has worked in ministry more than twenty years, challenges those views in this book that explores the many misconceptions we have about grace. She presents grace as a calculated, collective, illustrative plan from the mind of God to His people. She answers questions such as: What are the three levels of grace? How can grace help you find clarity and renewed hope? How can you liberate yourself from anxiety, depression, and heaviness? Can you really live a life of answered prayers? Is it possible to develop a greater intimacy with the Lord? The author also highlights what Jesus did for humanity in paying the penalty of everyone’s sin. He paid what we owed so that all accounts and charges could be settled or waived. Now we must live out the encapsulated aspects of grace that illustrate recompense through the work of repentance. Join the author as she explores the true meaning of grace and discover how it can help you move toward a greater level of freedom.
