The Waking up to Grace Podcast
If you are tired of trusting those who wave around their spiritual credentials and want to seek truth using true investigative techniques, come and join The Waking up to Grace Podcast. Brought to you by the finished work of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Full Grace. Nothing in its place.
I take a thorough, yet simple approach to scripture, factoring in things like audience relevance, historical settings, time frames of the writings and ancient Hebrew thought. Always reading through the lens of the gospel. The finished work of Christ Yeshua goes further than most realize, even beyond the cross and resurrection.
