Christians struggle with suffering, doubt, and brokenness just like everyone else. The Church is where broken sinners come to hear the Good News of what Jesus Christ has accomplished for them. We need the Gospel again and again, not more demands or formulas. Christ is our Savior, not our performance!

What if brokenness—not certainty—is exactly where Christ meets us?
The disciples stood before the risen Jesus, and some still doubted. The lost sheep was broken. The prodigal was broken. The paralytic was broken. The thief on the cross was broken.
Our faith doesn’t belong in the winner’s circle. Christ does.
“The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” — Psalm 34:18

Have we confused the God revealed in Jesus Christ with the god our religious traditions have constructed? In this episode, we look at Jesus—touching lepers, eating with sinners, forgiving the broken, loving His enemies, and seeking the lost—and ask a question we may be afraid to ask: Have we thought God was just like us

Adam’s disobedience brought ruin to us all. But what did Christ’s obedience accomplish? If we have no trouble believing what Adam did affected everyone, why do we struggle with what Christ did? Maybe we have underestimated the Last Adam.

What about faith and repentance? If Adam’s disobedience affected humanity without our permission, what does Christ’s obedience mean for us? Are faith and repentance something we contribute to Christ’s finished work—or are they our response to the Good News of what He has already done?

One man's disobedience brought condemnation. One Man's Obedience brought Justification.
I didn't believe in Adam. I didn't confess Adam's sin. I didn't invite Adam into my heart. Yet, his act affected the entire Human race!
So, Paul forces us to confront an enormous question:
If Adam's act could infect all of humanity, how far can the obedience of Jesus Christ reach?

What if the story of the prodigal son is bigger than we thought? In this first episode of The God Who Left Home, we look at the cross through a startling reversal: The Son who never sinned stepped into the place of the prodigal. Jesus took our sins, our shame, and our judgment so that prodigals could come home to the Father.
