Hello this is Ashley Chase welcoming you to the Mark Driscoll podcast.

For more content from my dad, Pastor Mark, senior pastor here at the Trinity Church in Scottsdale, Arizona,

visit real faith.com, where you'll find study guides to go along with each sermon series as he

preaches verse by verse through books of the Bible, daily devotions, free

e-books and more. Now grab your Bibles and get ready for today's sermon.

Well you look great!

You guys, it's just so adorable, so good to see you guys.

Hey, we're in Romans chapter 15,

incredible book of the Bible.

We're taking about a year and going through it and we're in chapter 15 looking at

relationships and how we get along and it's been kind of interesting. I got done preaching last night, came home,

Grace was like, yeah you didn't talk about anything in your notes.

I said, yeah, I know, it's kind of weird.

She said, what are you gonna talk about tomorrow?

I was like, I don't know.

So kind of, the way it's been working is Romans one through 11.

The book breaks down into two big thought units. Romans one through 11, the book breaks down into two big thought units.

Romans 1 through 11 is kind of the head of Christianity.

If you're kind of my nerd friend, you like footnotes and reading dead guys and Greek words,

and oh, you loved 1 through 11 it was very exciting

for you it's it's about the head of Christianity what we believe 12 through 16 where we

find ourselves it's really the heart of Christianity so if you're a hugger, if you remember people's names, if you're kind, you really like this section and the person that you're with that was kind of the nerd they're like I wish we had more big ideas
