New Year, New Faith: Exploring Grace in 2025

Guardians of Grace

Welcome to the first episode of 2025 on the Guardians of Grace podcast! Join hosts Bill and Steve as they bring in the New Year with discussions rooted in thankfulness and a deeper understanding of grace. This episode dives into Romans Chapter 4, exploring the notion that God's grace means He no longer counts our sins against us, using Abraham as an exemplar of faith counted as righteousness. Despite his flaws, Abraham is portrayed as steadfast in belief, illustrating God's unwavering faithfulness even when our own is lacking.

The conversation shifts to the concept of the new covenant, contrasting it with the Mosaic covenant. Listeners will learn how, under the new covenant, God remembers our sins no more, enabling us to live freely without the legalistic burdens previously imposed. The hosts candidly share personal stories and struggles, emphasizing the transformative power of experiencing God's love directly, and how it manifests as acts of kindness and love toward others.

Engage with this thought-provoking episode as Bill and Steve clarify misconceptions about grace, faith, and righteousness—offering encouragement to embrace a God-centered life that triumphs over human frailty. As they look forward to the year ahead, the hope is to widen the influence of the Guardians of Grace and deepen understanding of life's true nature, shaped by the eternal love and wisdom of God.
