Published On: Sun Oct 08 2023
Description: Stephen Taeger and Kerry address what Philippians can teach about the question of what makes Paul such a great Christian. What is it about who and what he is that enables him to be such an effective tool in spreading God's word? They also ask how we can accept others when they have motives and ideas that our different from ours. They then explore the difference between justification, sanctification, and perfectionism. They discuss how we can be changed by Christ and belong to Christ and the Father. They analyze the metaphor of life as a race and pressing forward in that race. They talk about what it means to be redeemed by Christ, even right now, at this present time in our lives.
