The Law isn’t just for the unconverted or the guy next to you in the pew. It’s for you, the Christian, too. But why? Why is the Law still preached to those who are in Christ. Isn’t the Gospel enough?

In this episode, we are diving into "The Theology We Sing! Discerning Good Christian Music." Not every song is created equal. Some proclaim Christ, others... well, not so much.

When the world is obsessed with screens, speed, and virtual presence, does the church have anything else to say? Does the Christian have any reason not to live with his head buried in a screen?
