Contributed by Brett Crosson on May 1, 2019

We live in a time where a lot of the western church is caught up in the hyper grace movement that condones sin and sells salvation wrapped up in sensuality and stickers of liberty. But God wants true freedom in his house and a hungering after righteousness again.
