By Grace Thru Faith: With Faith Circle of Partners

Over the years, little by little two seemingly mysterious yet key words become increasingly important to spiritual wellness: faith and grace. The Bible states, "The just shall live by faith." Christians need to understand what faith is and how it works. The Bible also states, "My grace is sufficient for you." Since grace is enough in even very difficult times, we need to know what it is and how to step into it. The Faith Circle in this book is both a jump start for faith and a grabber of grace to accelerate and accomplish even what could be considered impossible.

Emma McGuire Mitchell was married and the mother of two pre-school girls when she was hired as director of children's education at the Presbyterian Church of Toms River, New Jersey. In this capacity for seven years, she trained and placed as many as one hundred teachers yearly to teach 750–800 children in Sunday Church school, developed a yearly two-week observation training school open to churches in surrounding towns, and worked in observation seminars when called on by the New Jersey Synod.

In 1983, Emma registered and attended Word of Faith Leadership and Bible Institute. Some of her teachers were Marilyn Hickey, T.L. Osborn, and Lester Sumrall. After graduation she served in Overcomers New Life Fellowship in Brick, New Jersey, and as Bible school administrator, elder, and licensed reverend.
