Audio Blog 057: Blogging Gashmu: From Whence Cometh Love and Justice‪?‬ Everyday Conversations Podcast

    • Christianity

This is our fifth installment of "Blogging Gashmu," a chapter-by-chapter look at Pastor Doug Wilson's book Gashmu Saith It: How to Build Christian Communities that Save the World. In it Pastor Wilson argues that before we can "save the world" we must first be certain the church is truly a Christian Community. And there's the rub. As Wilson explains in chapter 4, the problem is that Christians want the blessings of Christ without rendering Him the total obedience He requires. In other words, we have to live the Lordship of Christ before we can successfully preach the hard truths of Christ to a rebellious world.
