About this listen
🚨 Spoiler Alert: If you’ve never seen the movie 'Saving Private Ryan' and plan to, you may want to hit pause and come back later. 🚨
This week, we reflect on one of the most gut-punching, unforgettable scenes in movie history - from the final act of Saving Private Ryan. Captain John Miller's last words to Private Ryan, “Earn this...earn it,” echo into the life of the man he saved... and maybe into our own.
But what happens when those words slip into our theology? What if we start to believe we have to earn what’s been freely given?
In this Sermon on the Side, we unpack the tension between living a life worthy of the calling we've received and resting in the truth of grace - that salvation isn’t something we achieve, but a gift of sheer grace we simply receive.
Join us as we wrestle with the pull of performance, the beauty of unmerited grace, and what it really means to run the race with purpose - not to earn salvation, but because of it.
