1. The Four Freedoms of Grace
The Freedom to be Vulnerable

2. What Does Vulnerable Mean?
That may be wounded; susceptible of wounds or external injuries; as a vulnerable body.
Liable to injury; subject to be affected injuriously; as a vulnerable reputation.
The second characteristic of the Grace Life is that it gives us the freedom to be vulnerable.
None of us have everything figured out or does everything right all the time. Grace gives us the freedom to be honest about our own short comings.
