Life is busy and the Bible is big! For far too many Jesus followers, Jesus is a thought on Sunday and not really the rest of the week. Let's change that. In this podcast, Matt McMorris is going to interview pastors, theologians, and students of Scripture on subjects that they are experts in.
Join Matt in learning more about Jesus and what the Bible says, what it means, and why it matters for us. This is Grace Beyond Sunday!
What would you do if you couldn't fail? Start a business? Go pro? Get engaged?
What if we looked at this question from a spiritual perspective?
God has a calling for your life. If you follow that call, the results are up to Him—not you. You are just called to be faithful. Stay faithful, and you won't fail!
