About this listen

In this week’s episode, Brenton and Chris talk about a quick life update—moving locally and celebrating 14 years at Harmony—before diving back into John 14. We unpack why the relationship between love and obedience is both a theological and practical struggle, tracing debates from Romans, Galatians, and James to today’s churches. Chris contrasts the ditches of legalism and progressive “anything goes,” emphasizing that law and grace aren’t enemies but meet in the gospel. We explore diagnostics for our motives—fear, self-justification, or genuine love for Jesus—and apply it to parenting with firm-but-not-harsh guidance that keeps relationship central.
