Send us Fan Mail“You cannot be unbirthed.” That’s the kind of statement that either offends you or frees you, and we lean all the way into what it means. We start with the new birth and the permanence of being God’s child, then get honest about the social cost of a changed life. When your desires shift toward serving Jesus Christ, people won’t always get it, and you still have to live faithfully inside that tension. From there, we ask a simple question with a big reach: what is the gospel to you beyond proclamation? The answers land in everyday Christian living and discipleship: putting your lamp on the lampstand, letting your hands and feet testify, loving enemies, staying slow to speak and quick to listen, and refusing to give glory to the flesh. We talk about the peace that surpasses understanding, including what it looks like to hold steady at work when you have every reason to snap back, and how trust in God shows up in money matters, work issues, and family conflict. We also spend time in Romans with Paul’s picture of service that is inward and sincere, not an exhibition or a performance. That leads into prayer, care for hurting people, and the hard but hopeful work of laying burdens down and obeying by faith when God brings His Word to remembrance. If you want practical encouragement for living the gospel, not just talking about it, this conversation is for you. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs comfort, and leave a review.
