The Grace Corner

Does God actually need us to serve Him? Not even close. So why did Jesus wash His disciples' feet the night before He died, and what does that have to do with how we serve each other now? In this episode, Carlo and Riza dig into what it means to be served by Jesus first, through the revelation of His finished work, before any service ever flows back out of us. They walk through the story of th...

What did Jesus actually do all those hours alone on the mountain? What power did the early church receive the moment the Holy Spirit came? And what are we leaving behind when we get baptized in the Holy Spirit? In this episode, Carlo and Riza go deep into one of the most misunderstood gifts in Scripture: speaking in tongues.
