Justification (1101)
Filter by:
  1. Cheap grace... some people would pay top dollar for that kind of breakthrough. Gillespie and Riley take a listener request and discuss Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s book, The Cost of Discipleship. Grace, discipline, Nazis, and why context matters in this episode.
  2. Luke 16, the “Parable” of the Rich Man and Lazarus Moses and the Prophets speak of Christ. If you don’t believe those words, why would you believe the actual resurrection?
  3. Looking back on the year, the narrative we’re fed is that we should be able to show how much we’ve grown, how much we’ve done, all the successes we’ve had, how improved we are.
  4. Into the suffocating prison of sorrow, God sends his Breath, his Holy Spirit to help us. We may suffer, but we will not be alone.
  5. Matthew 20- “Nunya Business!” Is not God free to generously give His grace--and indeed everything that is His--to whomever it pleases Him to give?
  6. We think that if we are good enough, brave enough, or at least if we try hard enough, we will be someone who can be both fully known and fully loved.
  7. Should we really be surprised that it would happen this way, that the servant would suffer for our salvation and die for our forgiveness?
  8. By every conceivable category, grace shouldn't exist. It shouldn't have been bestowed. It's the card in God's trick we never saw coming.
  9. Most days, we're not okay. We're not good enough, strong enough, or "Christian" enough.
  10. Our brokenness cuts deeper than just the times when we recognize it needs to be fixed.
  11. God does not combat the impending armies of Satan with might and power, but with the weakness of a babe.
  12. I can only disbelieve you or believe you. If I disbelieve you, I go on being a miserable bore.
