1. Heroes all have deep flaws and weaknesses. It is the same in real life as it is in myths. Craig and Troy take a look into the life and times of the Prophet Jonah. He is the kind of Bible Hero that we love to hate, but mostly because he is so much like us. What made Jonah tick? Why did he run when God told him to go to Ninevah? How does God work in spite of Jonah's weakness and rebellion? Listen to this episode of For You Radio and find out!
  2. Romans 7 is a pivotal chapter in the New Testament. The Apostle Paul laments that he keeps doing the sinful things that he hates and the good things that wants to do, he doesn't. Then we discover that the more godly one is, the less one sees oneself to be godly. Funny how that works. Join Craig and Troy as they talk about all of these topics and more.
  3. Romans 6 and into 7: We find that God works salvation in mankind by way of gift and not by works. What does it mean to be set free from sin and being a slave to God? Is that a good thing to be a slave and what does it mean to be set free into slavery? God works salvation in us, it is not our doing for the free gift of God is salvation, for sinners. Join Craig and Troy as they talk about all of these topics and more.
  4. Romans 6 continued... BAPTISM! The Apostle Paul continues to talk about life in Christ and forgiveness and mercy. - Is baptism more than just a symbol or a Christian ritual? - Who is at work in baptism, God or man? - Who chooses whom in salvation? - Do you choose God or has God chosen you? Join Craig and Troy as they talk about all of these topics and more.
  5. Cheap Grace? "What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it?" - What is "Sanctification" really all about? - How does Baptism relate to our justification and our Sanctification? Join Craig and Troy as they talk about all of these topics and more.

  9. On this episode, pastor and author Jared Wilson brings his exuberance for life and the gospel to bear on the doctrine of the Holy Spirit. Wilson helps us navigate between some of the craziness associated with the "work of the spirit" and the real Gospel hope we find in this doctrine.
