In this episode we share our testimonies and some gospel basics. We explore the new realities that happen when we become a Christian, including the things we gain, lose, and change.

Quote of the Week:
Today’s quote comes from Book VIII of Augustine’s Confessions. He writes of his conversion,

“So was I speaking and weeping in the most bitter contrition of my heart, when, lo! I heard from a neighboring house a voice, as of a boy or girl, I know not, chanting and oft repeating, 'Take up and read; take up and read.' … I opened, and in silence read that section on which my eyes first fell: 'Not in rioting and drunkenness… but put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in its lusts.' … No further would I read; nor needed I: for instantly … all the darkness of doubt vanished away.”
