‘You Are Not Your Own,’ with Dr. Alan Noble

Alan Noble rejoins the whole crew to discuss the implications of Q&A #1 from the Heidelberg Catechism.

What is our only comfort in life and in death? It’s that we do not belong to ourselves, but that we belong body and soul to Jesus Christ. Alan Noble thinks that if we will embrace this teaching, the church will be able to weather modernity. How exactly does that play out in our daily lives? That’s what he talks about with Matt, Derek, Alastair, and Andrew(!) on this episode.
