Summary

Season 5: A Study of Romans  During 2020, we had more laws and rules than ever before. The more law, the less joy. The more law, the less life. The more law, the less freedom. If that same environment is in your home or marriage you are literally killing each other. Being married to the law is a bad marriage. Being married to grace is a good marriage.
