Romans

This week in class we got to hear Chad teach us the entire book of Romans. Having never truly studied the book more than just to be able to walk someone down the Romans road it was unbelievable to dive in headfirst. It was cool to see this book in its entirety because Paul had never been to Rome so in this book he basically is writing everything that he wants them to know so it gives us an amazing picture. It was so cool to see as well that basically the theme of the entire bible can be summed up into Romans 1:16-17 because he has a lot of reason to be ashamed of the gospel because he has gone through so much. He has been captured beaten and laughed at but still remains faithful and unashamed to share the gospel. We need to be resilient like Paul so that when the tough stuff comes we do not just punt our faith but that we cling to it in these difficult times.
