Jesus is the only answer for our darkening times.

Christians are struggling to grow in Christ because of our problem-filled world.

At InGrace, we believe that Jesus is the only answer for our darkening times,

so we create resources to help people battle the struggles of daily life.

Our resources are different because they deal with the true realities of life,

instead of ignoring the hard parts that we all deal with.

InGrace resources can help you find hope, gain purpose, and be a light.

Our Story

50 years ago, Dr. James A. Scudder, Sr. felt the Lord calling him to start a church in Chicago, Illinois. He followed God’s leading in his life leaving everything he knew in Kentucky to move to Illinois in 1972. That year he and his wife Linda founded the Quentin Road Baptist Church, which then continued to grow. By 1992, Dr. Scudder acted on another burden he had to proclaim the clear gospel of grace around the world. That year he founded Victory In Grace, which has since changed to simply, InGrace. Because of Dr. Scudder’s passion, dedication, and unwavering faith, InGrace can now be seen and heard in almost every country in the world.
