The Necessary Side Of Salvation

“Somehow many have come to believe that a person can be a Christian without being like Christ, A follower who does not follow.” -Francis Chan

The Bible makes it clear that part of being a follower of Christ is being a follower of his ways. On today's podcast, Tamika Mahomes discusses the necessary side of salvation, Obedience. Join her as she unpacks how and why the Bible requires us to not only accept God but to walk in obedience to his word.
