Sometimes we need to test hand-me-down theology with three simple questions and show how love, not fear, reveals the Father Jesus revealed. Stories, scriptures, and practical filters help us let go of beliefs that can’t pass the light of Christ.
• why inherited beliefs need testing
• fear as a poor teacher and controller
• 1 John 4:18 and love casting out fear
• Jesus as the exact image of the Father
• doctrines that glorify effort over the finished work
• prodigal son as a picture of belonging
• applying three filters to salvation and end-times claims
• moving from behavior management to inner transformation
• shifting from getting to heaven to bringing the kingdom
