Pastor Bill Bush · Jul 14, 2020
Using the conversion and growth of the apostle Paul in Acts 9 as a lens, Pastor Bill argues that the Christian life is not a contractual religion in which we earn God's favor through rule-keeping, but a relationship rooted in God's prior, unconditional love. Because Jesus' righteousness has been imputed to us, we are freed from condemnation, empowered by the Holy Spirit, and propelled — through genuine community with other believers — to embrace God's mission even at personal cost. Surrendering to that love is both the starting point and the sustaining fuel for everything God asks of us.
