  • #56 Is Everything Really Going to Be Okay?
    In this episode, host Chance Dyer discusses the often-misquoted Bible verse Romans 8:28, which many people interpret as a guarantee of improved earthly circumstances. Dyer delves into common misconceptions, such as the beliefs that 'everything will turn out fine' or that 'everything happens for a reason.'
