Exploring what a practical Christian faith looks like when we start with God’s grace instead of our own performance. Together we’ll learn how to lift our gaze from the chaos of life and attend to Jesus as he is revealed in his word. Join us for friendly conversations that cut through the BS and talk about how to actually live in the grace of the gospel.

Brandon and Peter are drawn into a conversation about realistic expectations for the Christian life. The questions stem from a passage in, “Interior Freedom” by Jacques Philippe in which Philippe remarks that we waste our time and stunt our spiritual growth if we focus on our sins and limitations. The central issue becomes clear as the conversation progresses: If I have been fully redeemed and freed from sin by Jesus’ death on the cross, why do I not experience this freedom from sin? What do I do with my sin? The beatitudes lead Peter and Brandon to consider grief and acceptance as the proper response to one’s sin. They end with a discussion of the cycle of the Christian life being one of continual repentance.
