1. Romans 6 continued... BAPTISM! The Apostle Paul continues to talk about life in Christ and forgiveness and mercy. - Is baptism more than just a symbol or a Christian ritual? - Who is at work in baptism, God or man? - Who chooses whom in salvation? - Do you choose God or has God chosen you? Join Craig and Troy as they talk about all of these topics and more.
  2. Cheap Grace? "What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it?" - What is "Sanctification" really all about? - How does Baptism relate to our justification and our Sanctification? Join Craig and Troy as they talk about all of these topics and more.
  3. Sometimes life is hard and seems unbearable. How could someone actually rejoice in suffering?    The Apostle Paul writes to us in Romans 5:3 "...we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, 4 and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, 5 and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us." Join Craig and Troy as they talk about suffering and character.
