Part Three of Greg’s Interview with David D. Flowers
Here’s the final interview that Greg did with David D. Flowers in which he discusses his upcoming book Benefit of the Doubt: Dismantling the Idol of Certainty. Check it out!

Sermon Clip: Twisted Scripture-Romans 10

Instead of viewing salvation as a legal contract, we are invited to…
