Witnessing Christ

Law and Gospel Pt.1


Listen Later

In this episode of the Witnessing Christ Podcast, host Pastor Mark Parsons is joined by Molly, Caleb, Noah, Ethan, and Aaron to explore one of Christianity’s most important distinctions — the difference between God’s Law and His Gospel — and how properly understanding that difference changes everything, from personal faith to witnessing to Latter-day Saints.

The team explores:

  • How the Law exposes our sin and our illusion of control, showing that “we can’t — and that’s the point.”
  • The “Big L” Law (God’s commands) vs. the “little l” laws of culture, performance, and perfectionism.
  • Why even good things (like Bible reading or moral behavior) can become crushing when turned into metrics of worth.
  • How the Law always accuses — even when we think we’re “pulling it off.”
  • Why recognizing our deadness is not bad news but the very thing that prepares us for life in Christ.

Using humor, personal stories, and deep biblical insight, the interns discuss how the Law leaves us desperate — not to destroy us, but to drive us to the One who brings life.

Next week, they’ll continue the conversation with the Gospel section — the “good news from across the sea.”
