212. Is God Disappointed in Me? — A Conversation with Kurt Francom
Faith Matters
Understanding the Continuum of Faith and Grace in the Gospel
The Gospel should not be seen as a formula where certain actions lead to specific outcomes, as faith journeys vary significantly. The Gospel is better understood as a continuum between behaviors on one side and heart, acceptance, and grace on the other. One can move back and forth on this continuum, needing acceptance and love one day and more doctrinal teachings another. The Gospel starts with love, leading to a deeper connection with God through commandments and covenants, not as a means of measuring self-worth but of receiving redemption. Each individual's position on this continuum differs, with the Gospel meant to comfort the afflicted and challenge the comfortable. Therefore, a message that resonates with one person may not apply to another. It is essential for a community to embrace this diversity and refrain from judgment, allowing individuals to identify and meet their own spiritual needs at any given moment.
