1. Even from the moment of the Fall, God has never left us without His gracious promise of redemption. God moves first to cover us.
  2. The struggle is real. That is to say, the struggle with sin. Can we make ourselves holy? Can we find within ourselves the strength to make it better?
  3. Pain and suffering; it can feel like punishment from an angry God, and we try to figure out the cause, to our own frustration.
  4. Fear and great joy at Jesus' resurrection! But also rejection and refusal.
  5. In this episode with Mike Cosper, we talk about grace and virtue. How do we "pursue virtue" and not let go of grace? We discuss the difference between self introspection by checking our own fruit, and confessing our sins.
  6. In this episode, Paulson identifies the worry that all religion tries to answer "Am I chosen by God?"
  7. When surrounded by evil, it’s easy to think our doom is sure. How we can defend ourselves, how can we judge the wicked, especially when they seem so much smarter,stronger and more confident than us?
  8. Everyone is stained by sin. Who can stand before God? Who can dwell in His holy presence? Only the one who walks blamelessly.
  9. Dr. Paulson explores Luther's rebuttal of the adage "Knowledge is Power."
  10. In this episode we introduce the topic of gender in regard to justification and sanctification. In other words, women aren't saved any differently than men. It was revolutionary back in New Testament times and in some circumstances, it's still revolutionary today.
  11. God relentlessly pursues those who stray so that He may restore them to where they belong.
