Fasting: The Liberating Discipline

Virtue Signaling Justifies Nobody: Paul and Galatians 5:13-21

In the Church, the cry is, “He loves,” and it is that message which transforms our worldviews from taking to giving, from radical individualism to trans-demographic inclusivism, from selfishness to selflessness, from “tolerate my rights” to “loving rightly together.”

A Q&A for "A Shepherd's Letter"
