In this episode, we continue our series on Why We Doubt, focusing on the Theology of Glory versus the Theology of the Cross; one of the most important conversations we can have. Each week, we point out how the world constantly tugs our attention in countless directions, often toward worldly pursuits like power, success, fame, and human glory.These worldly-focused characteristics have found their way into Christianity, giving rise to two contrasting ideas: the Theology of Glory and the Theology of the Cross. These are not new theologies brought about by modern culture, though the Theology of Glory is certainly reinforced by it. We’ll explore what these ideas mean, where they come from, how they shape our view of God and ourselves, and which reflects true biblical teaching.Some teachers present Jesus as a path to blessing and progress, while other times we acknowledge more honestly that the Christian life is often marked by struggle and suffering. The Bible shows why both realities matter and how they shape our faith today.In this episode, we’ll examine the appeal of the Theology of Glory and the reality of the Theology of the Cross. By the end, you’ll see that the Christian life isn’t just about comfort or achievement; it’s about trusting God’s grace, embracing the way of the cross, and finding hope and purpose in Him, even when the path is hard.Book Recommendation: Christless Christianity: The Alternative Gospel of the American Church by Michael Horton https://a.co/d/dXg7ahVFollow Three Thirty Ministry on Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/three.thirty.mens.ministry/⁠Subscribe to He Must Increase on Youtube:⁠⁠www.youtube.com/@HeMustIncreasePodcastCheck Out Our Website: threethirtyministry.com#theology #reformed
