I see those that have escaped a legalistic covenant mixing belief system to then become enamored with hyper grace authors and eventually becoming legalistic in their new found hyper grace beliefs.
Escaping the bonds of the former legalism to then learn and grow in the gospel of grace of Jesus Christ is a liberating and beautiful thing. But somehow the defense mechanisms creep up and a form of legalistic grace appears to encourage consensus and a subtly manipulation towards group think where key phrases such as "the gospel of done" for example ignores resisting the devil, deliverance, co-laboring with Jesus, equipping the saints, and underatanding our spiritual gifts and using our gifts to minister each other. Instead sitting around and talking about how good God's grace is becomes the only topic. Yes it is very qonderful so go and do the things Jesus commands.
Ultimately legalistic hyper grace leads to stagnation, lack of faith, frustration, double mindedness and even universalism. It is over correction and needs to be addressed in many churches.
