This episode kicks off a series about leaving legalism behind and investigates “why” so many people invest in legalism instead of the true freedom Christ offers.

In this episode we delve into character as we watch Paul take a stand. We see how steadfastness can translate into compassion.

Paul was a man of great moral courage and sound judgement. He asked all Christians to be imitators of him as he imitated Christ and it is critical that we aim to do so.

Paul can confidently state that he is who he is according to the grace of God. It is this grace that equips everyone to do what God would have them do.

We cannot boast in our own abilities but only in what God gives us by grace. Grace is the ultimate leveller and the thing that makes us able to humbly call one another partners in the gospel.

Laying a foundation is critical and Paul was able to do that by the grace of God. Paul also warned the church to build on it with care.

David J. Jones addresses the issue of unity in the church and we hear why agreeing to disagree simply doesn’t work.

There is only so much that we can do to help ourselves. If we lift our eyes up to the highest mountain it points us to where our help comes from.

How do we replace fear with joy and what is joy really all about? This episode answers those questions and offers an alternative to commonplace misery.

Even when something is blatantly untrue, some people still choose to believe false information. Others are skeptics and look for evidence to prove that something is true. However, when it comes to the resurrection of Jesus it is mostly not believed. David J. Jones expounds on the situation with Thomas, post-resurrection, and explains why facts are simply not enough.
