You ever wonder what it means to truly reckon yourself dead to sin? It’s one of those phrases Paul throws out in Romans 6, and it sounds weighty, almost like a call to some spiritual martyrdom or a grim resignation. But it’s not. Far from it. Reckoning yourself dead to sin is actually the pivot

Faith—there’s a word tossed around lightly in church circles, almost like a magic wand. But when you dive into Paul’s letters with a grace-shaped lens, faith isn’t just some vague spiritual currency; it’s the very essence of pleasing God. Not perfection. Not performance. Faith. Real, raw trust in the finished work of Christ. Let’s reset.

Not just the warm, fuzzy grace everyone can quote in a Sunday service—but the radical, all-encompassing grace that shatters every rule we thought bound us. The God of All Grace doesn’t just tiptoe around our messes. He crashes into them, full-on,

Sometimes, the best truths are hidden right in plain sight—so obvious we skim over them without a second thought. Take the phrase “The Mystery Revealed.” It feels like a headline from a tabloid, promising secret knowledge, but in the Scriptures? It’s a phrase that pulses with deep significance. Paul taps into it repeatedly, not as

There’s something shocking and beautiful in realizing you’re not saved by what you do, but by what’s already been done for you. Saved by grace through faith isn’t just a nice phrase tossed around in church bulletins—it’s the explosive power that completely flips the script on how we view God, ourselves, and salvation.

Joy and peace. These two words get tossed around in church circles like cheap coin—pretty and shiny, yet often stressful to actually experience. But what if I told you that being “filled with all joy and peace in believing” isn’t some lofty ideal for the spiritual elite? It’s a reality nailed down through faith, a
