If you're struggling with the question of how to reconcile the sovereignty of God with the responsibility and will of man then this is the series for you. Pastor Brad starts with Romans chapter 9 and seeks to show the biblical balance between these two great doctrines that are both clearly taught in the Bible. The tendency has been for different groups to polarize by emphasizing one side of the equation more heavily than the other. Pastor Brad acknowledges the measure of mystery that will always shadow this subject, but seeks to clarify all that God has revealed to us now. The series also seeks to answer common questions about how the sovereignty of God affects our understanding of prayer, missions and evangelism. If God is totally sovereign (and He is!) then why pray, why share the Gospel, and why go to another country to take this Good news? You'll find biblical answers to these questions, along with a biblical basis for maintaining the unity of God's church over this controversial subject.
