How to Live in the Hope of the Gospel with Caleb Smith (Part 2)
The Gospel may be the most familiar element of your faith, but have you ever stopped to consider: what kind of Gospel have I heard? As we continue this conversation on the transforming power of the Gospel, Caleb is asking us to think about what expectations or perhaps traditions have we added to the Gospel. Unpacking this concept may give us clues as to why it’s harder to trust God in the middle of our pain.
The truth is that we were always designed to live connected to God. In our flesh, we long to make a name for ourselves and add to the work of the Gospel. But there’s nothing left to accomplish-it is finished. So come rest in this truth as Caleb and I as we dive into a conversation about the beauty of God’s gift to us on the cross.
