    Contributed by Robert Butler on Oct 24, 2019

    The Gospel of Accomplishment: “You must believe and live right to be saved.” The Gospel of Approval: “I’m defined by what other people think about me.” Here’s our third counterfeit gospel: The Gospel of Self-Management - “You can change. Look inside you for the power to change.”

    We continue our series on Why the Reformation matters today by looking at the importance of faith.

We will return back to Sean’s story a little later today. 500 years after ...read more
