In today's episode, we are chatting about what it looks like to be ALL-IN as a Christian. Not one toe in, not half in, but ALL-IN. Is this even possible? Paul seemed to think so when he wrote these words, "And I am certain, that God who began a good work WITHIN you, will continue His work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns." Philippians 1:6. Join us as we talk about an ALL-IN life.
