Doug Wilson shares his journey from legalistic striving to gospel freedom, revealing how discovering his identity in Christ transformed his understanding of salvation and relationship with God. The conversation explores the damaging effects of a "Jesus plus" mentality and the liberation that comes from resting in Christ's finished work.

• Born and raised in Oklahoma with minimal church background
• Initially approached religion as a set of doctrines rather than a relationship
• Spent a decade as a church elder trying and failing to live up to legal standards
• Left church completely for two years after burning out spiritually
• Discovered through a new pastor that the gospel offers complete freedom
• Found his true identity in Christ rather than in religious performance
• Now views the Sabbath as resting in Christ's salvation rather than as a legal requirement
• No longer judges others but sees them as people Christ loves
• Learned that we can be honest about our anger while still responding in love
• Encourages others that "the fight's already been won" through Christ.
