The pursuit of holiness is often driven by fear rather than grace. Jon Moffitt challenges the common idea that Christians must obey out of fear of losing their salvation. Too often, the message becomes that grace gets you into God's family, but obedience and performance are what keep you there. This creates a subtle fear that drives Christian living rather than a joyful response to God's grace. Through Scripture, the discussion makes the case that believers are not called to holiness through fear, but through the transforming power of grace.

Do Hebrews 6 and 10 teach that Christians should constantly fear becoming apostates? Jon Moffitt examines two of Scripture’s most sobering warning passages and why they have left many tender consciences questioning their salvation. When properly understood and preached, these warnings should lead true believers toward greater confidence and rest in Christ, not continual anxiety. At the same time, the warnings against apostasy are real and should produce genuine fear in those who meet the biblical criteria. Understanding who these warnings address changes how Christians read some of the most difficult passages in Hebrews.

Is antinomianism really the greatest threat to the church, or has another distortion of the gospel become far more common? Jon Moffitt examines antinomianism and neonomianism, defining both terms and explaining how they distort grace in different ways. Through Scripture and church history, Jon explores why gospel-centered preaching is often wrongly accused of being antinomian. Neither error can be corrected simply by adding more law, because both ultimately involve a corrupted understanding of the gospel. Drawing from Jude, Paul, and Peter, the solution is a proper understanding of grace that preserves the gospel rather than perverting it.

Should preaching leave Christians encouraged by Christ, or exhausted from being beaten down? Jon Moffitt examines a powerful clip from Sinclair Ferguson on what faithful preaching should actually sound like. Ferguson’s wisdom challenges preaching that constantly scolds, condemns, or leaves congregations feeling spiritually defeated. For church members, this offers a helpful standard for recognizing Christ-centered preaching. For pastors, it raises an important question about whether the pulpit is feeding Christ’s sheep or simply whipping them.

Can salvation really depend on your performance, obedience, or religious works? Jon Moffitt sits down with Ryan Hemelaar from NeedGod.net to examine the gospel of grace and the growing appeal of Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy. They discuss justification by faith alone, assurance of salvation, and why adding human works to Christ's finished work undermines the believer's rest. The conversation also explores why true obedience flows from gratitude and love for Christ, rather than fear of losing salvation. Ultimately, the focus returns to the sufficiency of Christ and the rest found in his righteousness alone.

Should Christians use the law to make believers question their salvation? Jon Moffitt and Doug Van Dorn examine how the law functions before and after someone comes to Christ, and why Scripture's use of the law should not leave believers trapped in far. The conversation explores assurance, salvation, and the danger of using the law in ways that undermine confidence in Christ. They also address the question of whether Christians should continually doubt their salvation and how gospel clarity brings freedom and assurance.

Must you repent of your sins before you can be saved? Jon Moffitt examines the biblical command to “repent and believe” and asks what repentance actually means in relation to salvation. The conversation explores the long-standing debate over whether turning away from sin must come before turning to Christ. Scripture is examined to clarify what true repentance is and whether anyone can truly repent of their sins apart from Christ. The discussion points to a deeper understanding of salvation, repentance, and faith.

What happens when the spiritual high fades and the trials begin? Jon Moffitt explores the danger of depending on powerful spiritual experiences to sustain your faith. Through stories from the Old Testament and teaching from Peter, Paul, and James, the conversation examines why spiritual highs cannot produce lasting faith or joy. Instead, trials and failures reveal where true stability must be found. The Christian life is not sustained by chasing another spiritual high, but by resting in what God has already done.

What happens when the pursuit of holiness leaves you striving instead of resting in Christ? Jon Moffitt sits down with Christian radio professional, Doug Hannah, to explore his journey from the Wesleyan holiness movement and pietism toward a theology that offers real gospel rest. The conversation examines how pietism can shape the way Christians understand holiness, obedience, and the Christian life. Doug also shares how a clearer understanding of the gospel transformed his view of what it means to rest in Christ.
