Years have passed since your conversion, yet you still wrestle with the same sin and think: this is not how it was meant to be. The sermon turns to Romans 7, where Paul describes with disarming honesty the split in a person who wants good and chooses evil, and explains why knowing God’s law has never on its own changed anyone. Using the picture of Eustace, whose dragon skin is torn away by Aslan’s claws because the boy could not remove it himself, it leads to a very uncomfortable conclusion about our own effort. Listen in if you are tired of trying harder and want to hear what Christian transformation actually rests on.
Not How It Was Meant to Be
You've Got a Message
We live in a world filled with news, most of which adds nothing positive to our lives. It only stirs up anxiety and robs us of hope. Other news is fake news, which presents a distorted picture of reality and causes confusion. That is why we all need to hear this one true message about who we are, what our problem is, and what the solution is. In his Letter to the Romans, the Apostle Paul has just such a message for us and answers our most important questions. This letter is the most complete explanation of the gospel-that is, the good news from God Himself.
