  5. Even from the moment of the Fall, God has never left us without His gracious promise of redemption. God moves first to cover us.
  6. Satan didn't lie, but he told Adam and Eve exactly what would happen. The only thing he didn't say is whether or not they would like it.
  7. 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?

  9. Fear and great joy at Jesus' resurrection! But also rejection and refusal.
  10. 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.
  11. Waiting on God can seem like slow motion torture sometimes.
