PODCAST: "GOD WITHOUT RELIGION" ........... part one: Guest Andrew Farley joins Jim Robbins

Podcast:  GOD WITHOUT RELIGION - part one.  Interview with author Andrew Farley

This is part one of a three-part series Drew Farley and I will be doing.  Drew is the author of The Naked Gospel and his new book is called, God Without Religion:  Can It Really Be This Simple.  His writings have been featured in national news and media outlets including PBS, CBS, and FOX.

• During this interview, Drew and I ask whether or not the Law is still appropriate as a guide for Christian behavior, and examine why it is not.


• You'll discover that using the Law [including the Ten Commandments] as guidance for godly living will actually cause more sin, not less.


• We also talk about the troubling passages in The Sermon on the Mount in which Jesus is delivering harsh warnings and unattainable standards for righteousness.  What are we to make of those passages?  Is there a more accurate and hopeful way to read them?

This podcast offers hope and peace for the Christian who is tired of religious self-improvement and pressure to be spiritual.

I saw the interview of the author on TV few weeks ago. Sounds really exciting.:)

[Jim Robbins]

Hey Joseph,

Drew Farley and I write books on very similar issues -- trying to get religion off people's backs to help them find true freedom in Christ. I love doing podcasts with Drew Farley, for that reason...he really gets it. In fact, we're doing the second podcast in our series this week. I'll post it here on my blog and on Facebook.

Thanks for listening!
