A "Part 2" to the previous episode - Michael and Bryson add some biblical perspective to the conversation about ongoing sin the life of the Jesus follower. As Pastors, we are doctors or clinical psychologists. But it is important to ask the questions "What happens when Christians live in ongoing sin?" and "Can Christ followers have addictions?".
We're going deep on this one! Have you ever just asked the honest question, "Why does God make such a big deal about sin?" or "Why Can't God Just Forgive Everyone?" then this one's for you. Michael and Bryson take a tour through several books of the Bible to make a case for why God judges you for your sin AND THATS A GOOD THING!
Special Guest: Church Planter in Residency Sam Watson Why do we make such a big deal about starting new churches? Aren't there already a lot of them? These are legitimate questions and to answer them we brought in our resident church planter Sam Watson to help us answer them.
