This week we explored the heart of Paul’s message: that God’s righteousness is revealed apart from the Law and given freely through faith in Jesus Christ. We saw how Abraham’s story reminds us that faith, not works, is the foundation of our relationship with God. And we rejoiced in the hope and peace that come from being justified by faith and reconciled to God through Christ.
Be encouraged—your standing with God is secure, not because of what you’ve done, but because of what Christ has already accomplished. Walk this week in the peace and confidence of His grace, and remember: we stand in hope because we stand in Him!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
