In this episode, Hunter is chatting with Elizabeth Woodson about the basics of the gospel and its application to everyday life. They explore the key elements of the gospel, including God's creation of man, humanity's fall into sin, Jesus' redemption, and the promised hope of consummation. This conversation is full of rich insights about the goodness of the gospel and what it means to love God and live out the gospel in all seasons of life. We hope it encourages you to more fully understand the gospel narrative of Scripture, to apply those truths to your own life, and to embrace the conviction, comfort, and transformed identity that that the gospel brings!

Today we’re talking to Jamie Dunlop about one of the things that we can all probably say contributes to weariness in our lives: dealing with difficult people.

Jamie serves as Associate Pastor at Capitol Hill Baptist Church in Washington, DC, and is the author of Love the Ones Who Drive You Crazy.
