Continuing to draw from Romans 12, and into 11...to discover all that is available as a result of God and his unmerited mercy...

Adam and I barely get started on Romans 12. It's a good start, but stay tuned...

What unifies the the people of God is the simple fact that we are who we are because of faith alone in Christ alone, that's it. But we do have an obligation to call out misaligned and disobedient behaviors among us. That is to say, we are called to judge one another. That's a profound responsibility, and...we're not very good at it. We should tread lightly...

Like grace, faith alone is wonderful, but seems unreasonable. And won't true unconditional grace and faith alone (not any particular behavior) be taken advantage of, even exploited? Yep. Let's talk about it.

There's just no way around it. The journey of faith requires humility at every turn...

Justin and I finish up our discussion with an uncomfortable discovery...

Pastor Justin and I continue our conversation and kick around the probability of widespread Christian unity...true, sincere, authentic unity

In the first of three segments Justin and I kick around a few points from Msg 15 (Rom 15), most notably the utter necessity of humility in any degree of real unity.
