This guide was written by Kyle Bruinooge, who teaches New Testament and Worldviews at Covenant Christian High School.

"The questions in this study guide are of varying forms. Some questions are simply designed as an aid to give organization and structure to the chapters. Other questions are crafted to foster and promote profitable and lively discussion on the topics raised in the book. Finally, my overall aim was that a number of questions would be personal and real for the child of God. For these questions, each individual who studies the book can respond uniquely and personally to how God has used the precious truths of grace in his or her life." -Kyle Bruinooge, 2023

Originally a series of radio sermons broadcast on the Reformed Witness Hour program, The Wonder of Grace was first published as a book in 1944. In Wonder, the author develops the concept of salvation by grace. Each of the fifteen chapters is devoted to one aspect of the grace that God bestows on the believer in the process of salvation. The reader of this work will grow in the knowledge and confidence that salvation is by grace alone and that God is worthy of all praise and glory.

This edition of The Wonder of Grace is a reprint of the 1982 edition of Herman Hoeksema’s little classic on God’s sovereign grace. In order to remain faithful to the words and ideas of the author, changes made to this edition were stylistic in nature.

What others are saying about this book:

"This is a rigidly thorough presentation of the Calvinistic doctrine of grace by the professor of Dogmatics and New Testament Exegesis in the Protestant Reformed Seminary at Grand Rapids. The thesis is that salvation is altogether and exclusively of grace, and there is therefore no need to try to persuade men to repent and seek the Lord. Each man's redemption has been determined within the sovereign election by which God works. Reconciliation is accomplished by by man nor by Christ; it is God's work. This book will appeal to those who are already confirmed in the 'double-edged' doctrine of election." - H.W. Tribble, The Review and Expositor: A Baptist Theological Quarterly (Vol. XLII, January, 1945, No. 1) (p. 108)

"Pastor Hoeksema's treatment of God's grace was thought provoking and expanded my vision of it. Richly theological and practical. I recommend you read it." - Kim Rasmussen
