How God Offers Us the Gift of Being Made Right with Him

This week's episode is about a hard-to-believe offer that God makes us, through us turning to Jesus in faith. Believing Him, not performing any religious or other 'good' actions. This is staggering generosity from God, which is why many of us find it hard to simply believe and receive. It's all explained through the Bible readings for this week that (in excerpted form) do most of the storytelling. You can check out the full Bible versions using these links:

EXCERPT

The story of the convicted criminal on the cross who receives salvation from Jesus just for the asking, teaches us that God makes it a really simple process, not a complicated one — it just requires faith to believe Him
