The Dikaios Podcast: Recent Episodes
Andrew Swope
A podcast that helps Christians communicate what they believe and why they believe it according to Scripture alone.
In this episode, Andrew takes a break from interviews and the attributes of God series to talk about a very important discussion for Christians on the balance between Law and Gospel in a conversation or sermon whether that be in the pulpit on Sunday morning, in a one-on-one conversation with a co-worker, or on the street doing evangelism. The Christian life is about balance. And the Apostle Paul can tell you firsthand (actually right in his letters and their structure), that this is a key area to have stability and discernment. We hope God uses this discussion to edify you!
