Ep. 5: Are You A Sinner Or A Saint? Part 1 of Who Am I?
When was the last time you asked yourself the following question: Who am I?
This episode challenges the common belief that Christians should constantly see themselves as sinners. Bill Thrall and Scott Boyd propose that true influence comes from understanding our identities as saints, defined by God's grace and righteousness. They also explore the idea of "dying more" versus "living more," suggesting that, as Christians, we should focus on living into our new identity in Christ rather than constantly striving to overcome our sinful natures.
