What does it really mean to be "dead to sin"?

Paul's words in Romans 6 contain one of the most radical promises in all of Scripture—that through Christ, we don't just get forgiveness, we get a completely new identity. But if we're truly dead to sin, why do we still struggle? And what does this "newness of life" actually look like in our daily experience?

The Shocking Question - Romans 6:1
"Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase?"
Why Paul had to address this dangerous misunderstanding of grace

The Burial that Changes Everything - Romans 6:3-4
"We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death..."
How baptism represents far more than a religious ritual—it's a cosmic reality

The Resurrection Promise - Romans 6:4
"...just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life"
What this "new life" means for your Monday morning, your relationships, and your deepest struggles

The Identity Shift
Moving from "I'm a sinner trying to be good" to "I'm a new creation learning to live out who I already am"

In a world obsessed with self-improvement and behavior modification, Romans 6 offers something radically different: transformation from the inside out. This isn't about trying harder—it's about discovering who you really are in Christ.

Whether you're wrestling with persistent sin patterns, feeling stuck in spiritual mediocrity, or simply wanting to understand the depth of what Christ accomplished for you, this episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about the Christian life.

  • A clearer understanding of your true identity in Christ
  • Practical insights for living out this "newness of life"
  • Freedom from the exhausting cycle of spiritual performance
  • Hope for real, lasting change
