Listen Later

Kyle Worley is joined by Sam Allberry to have a conversation about union with Christ and both of their new books!

Questions Covered in This Episode:

  • Why do we need more books about union with Christ?
  • Why did you title the book “One with My Lord”?
  • Why did you title your book “Home with God”?
  • When did this doctrine first become precious to you?
  • What is “union with Christ?”
  • Do you see any connection between the covenant love of God and union with Christ?
  • What did you learn while writing this book?
  • When people read your book - what do you hope is the one thing they walk away with?

Helpful Definitions:

  • Union with Christ: 
    • When we come to believe in Jesus we are made one with Him. We are so spiritually one with Jesus that His righteousness becomes ours and it is right for our sin to be carried by Him.
    • The believer's identification, incorporation, and participation into all who Christ is and all that Christ does.
