What are the ordinary means of grace, and why do we call them “means of grace?”
Summary
The sermon emphasizes that spiritual growth is achieved through the ordinary "means of grace," such as worship, Sabbath observance, Scripture reading and preaching, baptism, and the Lord's Supper. These divinely ordained practices provide nourishment for Christians and Christian communities. Therefore, believers should embrace these accessible avenues for growth rather than seeking novel or superficial methods.
