Listen "Too Easy to Be True? Naaman, Grace, and the God Who Keeps It Simple"
Episode Synopsis
Is God's grace really as simple as "wash and be clean"? In this episode, we explore the story of Naaman — the powerful commander who almost missed out on healing because the cure was too straightforward for his pride to handle.Phil reflects on how we, like Naaman, often expect faith to be complicated, dramatic, or costly — and how our suspicion of anything “too easy” can get in the way of receiving the gift right in front of us. Along the way, there’s a story about free laptops, a cameo from Adrian Plass (and a confused bloke called Ron), and a good reminder from Phil’s dad: KISS — Keep It Simple, Stupid.At the heart of it all? A gospel that really is as good — and as simple — as it sounds: God loves you, and there’s nothing you need to do to earn it.
