Have you ever felt you need to do more or try harder to earn God’s acceptance? In Mark 10:7-31 Jesus is approached by a rich young ruler who desires to know how to enter the Kingdom of God and gain eternal life. After a short conversation, the young man walked away sad and feeling hopeless. Jesus used this encounter to instruct the disciples about the Gospel. In this episode, Marian Jordan Ellis explains the difference between religion and faith in Jesus, and she exposes the lie that says we must work hard or strive to make ourselves right with God. Tune in today to experience the freedom and joy that comes from Christ alone.
