We’re looking at a life of goodness in today’s Cultivate podcast. If you already feel disqualified or like you’ve totally missed that “good” mark you’re exactly who I hope will join me. Scripture is really interesting on the topic of goodness because in Romans Paul quotes the Old Testament by saying that no one is good, not even one. And yet he’s also the one who teaches us that we’re to display the fruit of goodness and that we’re created for good works. So which is it? 
In today’s episode we’re going to find out that it’s both. While we’re not saved by our good works, we’re definitely saved for good works. And the very grace that saves us is the same grace that fuels a life of goodness that doesn’t always come naturally to us. You were created for good works, and not only that, God prepared certain good works for you to do! I’m so excited about this episode as we dive into Ephesians 5:8-9, Ephesians 2:1-5, and Ephesians 2:8-10. My prayer is that you’ll find freedom from guilt and discouragement, and lean into God’s grace for the all the good He has in store for you.
