In this first installment of our multi-week series on the "Calvinism Explained: The Five Points of Calvinism," Clint Archer and Will Brannon dive into the "T" in TULIP: Total Depravity. They discuss why this doctrine is often misunderstood, where it originated historically, and—most importantly—what the Bible actually says about the human condition and our inability to seek God apart from His grace.
