[013] GS:E1 Dillon Chase
We apologize for the rough audio. It's prison... so...
Grace vs Works as a tool to keep a Christian from deconstructing their faith.
In this special Green Sheet episode of Theology Lockdown, we’re taking the podcast outside the studio to a prison music festival! We stand up with special guest Dillon Chase to talk about ministry, music, and the exhausting trap of a works-based faith.
How do we avoid the temptation of building a spiritual "stat sheet"? And why is relying on God's grace the only cure for burnout and deconstruction? Join the guys as we blend raw, behind-the-scenes prison life with deep conversations about grace, works, and trusting God with the results.
