25. Who is God? Omniscient!
Another attribute that makes God is amazing His omniscience. As humans, we are often reminded how much we don't know. God knows everything down to the smallest detail. Does the Bible really speak about this? If God knows everything why doesn't he stop the bad things that He knows will happen? What does it means that God foreknew who would be saved? Why should you be comforted by God knowing all things? Listen in, as we try to answer these questions!  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/grant-billings3/support

22. Waiting on the Lord
Many of us have gone through times of intense uncertainty in life. In these times we should wait on the Lord. But for you that have heard this phrase before, numerous times even, it may have become some cliche that doesn't create great confidence in your heart. In this episode, we go through why waiting on the Lord should breed courage in our souls. What does it mean to wait on the Lord? What about God would make us believe He won't let us down? What are the promises of God that Christians have the privilege of clinging to every second of their lives? These are some of the questions that we attempt to answer. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/grant-billings3/support

21. Who is God? Merciful!
Why would God save you? With the help of Dr. Dane Ortlund's "Gentle and Lowly," we delve into one of the most beautiful truths in the Bible. Simply put, God saves us because He is merciful. We are not saved because we are particularly lovely. God doesn't save us because He needed to. We haven't done any good work that would impress God enough to save us. However, God desires to bring us near because He is at the core of His being...merciful. Come and marvel at the mercy of God with us. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/grant-billings3/support

18. What is Repentance?
What is repentance, and why is it a necessary part of the Christian life? Some Christians believe that they can go throughout their lives pursuing a lifestyle that God opposes, but because they repented of their sins at a church alter many years ago, they are good with God. What role does repentance have in salvation? In this episode, Grant and Josiah explore these questions Biblically.  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/grant-billings3/support
