Summary

Pastor J.D. Greear and I came in HOT talking all about Paul, why it's important to teach on the book of Romans, and how drawing near to Jesus refines our belief system. This is such a helpful conversation and I think you're going to like this one. J.D.'s book Essential Christianity is so good! I'm so thankful for J.D. and his leadership. . . . .  Go to hereforyoutour.com to get your tickets to our upcoming tour this June! Want to gift a ticket to a friend?
