Hi, this is Justin. Today on Theocast, we're going to talk about life here on earth. We're going to talk about the fact that there will be weakness this side of the resurrection.

Oftentimes in the church, we're made to think that the Christian life is one where we move from triumph to triumph and spiritual experience to

spiritual experience. But in reality, what we're doing, this side of heaven is learning to

trust Christ in the midst of weakness and in the midst of our battle against even the corruption

of our own flesh. So John and I talk today about what that looks like. We talk a little bit

personally. We talk

theologically. And we talk about how Christ really is all we have. And the heralding of Christ

and his sufficiency for us is what we desperately need in the church. We hope that you're

encouraged by the conversation. And then over in SR, for the first time, we take a couple of

listener questions and attempt to answer those.

We hope you enjoy the conversation. Stay tuned.

Welcome to Theocast, encouraging weary pilgrims to rest in Christ, conversations about the Christian life from a confessional reformed and pastoral perspective.

Got them all in.

There you go.

Your hosts today are John Moffat, who is pastor of Grace Reform Church in Spring Hill, Tennessee.

And I'm Justin Purdue, pastor of Covenant Baptist Church in Ashe Hill, Tennessee. And I'm Justin Perdue, pastor of Covenant

Baptist Church in Asheville, North Carolina. We are podcasting this morning on a Wednesday,

and it's a rainy one. Kind of gray and dreary like our clothing today. And in all honesty,

kind of like we're feeling in our hearts a little bit.
