James: In Conversation (with Stanford Gibson, Madeline Peterson, and Peter Nittler)
Manage episode 275023965 series 2734862
You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.
That's James 2:26 right there. But. How can that be? Doesn’t Paul tell us that “one is justified by faith apart from works”. This seems like… a problem. Have you ever been bothered by this? Have you ever been curious about how these seemingly opposing ideas can possibly exist in the same worldview? Well, we have, too. And we’re talking about this dynamic and much more on this episode of Your Pod and Your Staff. Stanford, Peter, and newest member of the College Life staff, Madee Peterson (!), open up The Letter of James and talk through some of the biggest questions, get honest about the parts that make them uncomfortable, and celebrate the parts they adore. What is the deal with faith and works? Why is the tongue such a big deal? (I wish it wasn’t!) Is it ok to doubt? And much more. We hope you bring your own thoughts, questions, and affections to this episode, and we hope you enjoy!
