5 Solas of the Reformation-Soli Deo Gloria


Listen Later

God's glory is something that we hear referenced a lot in Christian circles but we aren't quite sure what it means. Most literally the word glory means "weighty" or "heavy." In this episode, Ben and Greg discuss what we mean when we ascribe the word glory to God, why it was so essential for the Reformers, and why it is so essential for us today. On the way, they walk through the story line of the Bible through the lens of God's glory and show that all things resound for the glory of God alone.
