    Contributed by David Dykes on Sep 5, 2013
     | 18,750 views

    Legalism is a real temptation for us because we're wired to DO something. We have learned that we earn our bread by the sweat of our brow and we can't help but apply that to our spiritual life.

    INTRODUCTION The term “who’s your daddy?” has become a part of our cultural vernacular. My golf buddy, Dean Cagle, yells it every time he makes a long putt, which is more often than I like. In fact, the guys who know Dean know him by that phrase. So, a couple of years ago when I ...read more
