OTHER RESOURCES: "Mere Christianity" by CS Lewis LEGAL DISCLOSURE the author of this episode description does not claim to have any knowledge of the middle name of the podcast host (known here as "Zach" of the "Zach and Dave Podcast") and any indication of prior knowledge is mere postulation and conjecture. No one accepts liability if said middle name is incorrect... but if it turns out to actually be Bartholomew... 2 points for Dave.
We call ourselves Christians... but why? How is Christ truly the center of our faith and what does it mean to say "In Christ Alone"?

Okay, so you "believe" in Scripture Alone... but what does that mean for you today? This week? For your church? How does this begin to change your community?
