Ep 1394 | The Robertsons Take on the Christian Obsession with Being Good Enough
Christian, John Luke, Zach, and Al dig into one of Christianity’s oldest debates: whether righteousness comes from human effort or the grace of God. John Luke opens up about spending years trying to be “good enough,” only to realize that discipline and good habits could never replace a real relationship with God. Plus, Christian learns that Jase has apparently started blaming him for a few new studio grievances.

More about Theology 101:
Examine the great questions of Western theology from the ancient Hebrews through today. The gift of speech, or reason, given by God to man, enables us to think about God and to worship Him.
This free online course pursues this purpose by examining the nature of God as revealed in the Bible, exploring the great theological questions and controversies of the early Christian church, studying the history of the Reformation and Counter-Reformation, and much more.
We invite you to join us and explore the nature of the relationship between God and man, and how a proper understanding of this relationship can lead to a free and happy life.
