Grace & Justification: A Catholic Response to the Reformation

October 31 marks the anniversary of the Protestant Reformation — the event that divided Christians over one vital question: How are we made right with God?

In this powerful 6-minute reflection, Steve Wood, founder of Family Life Center International, explores the heart of that question and offers a clear, biblical explanation of the Catholic understanding of grace and justification.

For centuries, Protestants and Catholics have debated whether justification is a legal declaration or a transforming grace. In this short video, you’ll see the difference — and discover how both sides begin with the same truth:

“Our justification comes from the grace of God.”
(Catechism of the Catholic Church, Section 1996)

Featuring a simple visual journey — from the courtroom to the Father’s house — Steve explains how Catholic teaching reveals the full beauty of God’s saving plan: grace that not only forgives, but transforms.
