The Fellowship of the Free

Erik Guzman November 5th, 2007

On the last Scandalous Freedom Podcast, one of Steve's suggestions for "Holding the Land" was to never forget the fellowship of the free.

Freedom and grace are at the heart of historical, orthodox Christianity. We are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses. And while many have had a heart transplant by embracing stale old religion, thousands are rediscovering the good news of the good news.

Steve wouldn't say this about himself, so allow meR … (Read More)

Kinda scary, huh? … (Read More)

Something about religion can make us into insecure, self-doubting failures. Enough rules, regulations, and laws exist in every religion (including ours) to kill off any hope of ever measuring up.

On this week's Scandalous Freedom Podcast, Steve talks about the perfect law of God and how we misuse it to foster failure. Listen to hear how the preaching of the law without an understanding that it was given to send us to a loving and forgiving God will destroy our fr … (Read More)

The Failure We Foster

Erik Guzman October 8th, 2007

Tweet

Many Christians live in a prison of failure. They aren't free and they don't succeed because they don't think they deserve it.

A misunderstanding of success, humility, and the law mixed up with bad psychology and worse theology have produced churches full of guilty people with a guilty preacher standing in the pulpit, telling the guilty people that they should feel guiltier. Can you think of a better recipe for failure?

Join Steve Brown for the Scanda … (Read More)
