GRACE. Jesus didn't bring us religion; humans had long been sacrificing to the gods. His Gospel is an undeserved gift that overflows the heart and splashes out in waves that bless others.
ARCHY. A suffering servant is the true king. His "government" is made up of servants who voluntarily carry a cross, go the extra mile, and care for the weakest. Church and State don't govern that way, so you're "Done."
HOST. Jim Babka's career evolved from political campaigns to policy activism to principle-based philosophy. He discovered that politics corrupts character, the world hates being fixed, and debates disconnect persons. Chopping at the root requires us to address blame, envy, and scapegoating. The world needs Grace.

EP144: Why Do Fundamentalist Christians Dislike Jesus? - Gracearchy with Jim Babka
Christians should be able to defend slavery? Pastor Joshua Haymes said that on his podcast. It was clipped and shared, sparking outrage. Might it be the case that Haymes is being consistent with a hermeneutic many evangelicals already share? Jim Babka explains why so many believers react emotionally but struggle to explain why.
In this episode, you’ll discover a better hermeneutic. You'll also learn why grace is essential and why reaching people before they tie their identity to hate matters.
