Redemption vs Restoration | Ryan Bush

Hosted by Pastor Bill Scheer

Redemption was already paid for. Restoration is what you have to go dig up. In this message, guest speaker Ryan Bush breaks down the difference between two words believers use interchangeably but shouldn't: redemption and restoration. Redemption is the finished work of the cross — a free gift you didn't earn and can't repeat. Restoration is different. It's physical, tangible, and it demands your participation. Using the story of Isaac re-digging his father's buried wells in Genesis 26, Ryan unpacks why the things you've lost — joy, confidence, health, peace, a dream you buried years ago — aren't gone. They're just covered up, waiting for you to start digging. Subscribe.
