“Grace and the Grave”

What if yesterday isn’t your jailer but a grave Christ has already emptied?

In this episode, we face the pull of regret, grief, and nostalgia and follow Scripture’s path into the freedom of God’s eternal now, where your story is no longer a trial without end but a record of mercy.

We talk about how grace reframes your past, not by erasing it but by placing it inside the finished work of Jesus. The cross becomes the real place where your old self died. The resurrection becomes your new identity. Memory itself becomes a witness to God’s kindness rather than a museum of failure.

Paul’s words about forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward come alive again. It isn’t about denial. It’s about posture, turning from what once defined you to the One who already redeemed it.

You’ll hear why the blood of Jesus did more than cover sin. It removed it, once and for all. Your guilt has been carried away as far as the east is from the west, never to find you again. We walk through what it means to be united with Christ, clothed in His righteousness, and standing in grace right now, even when your emotions are still catching up to what’s already true in Him.

We honor grief without rushing it, while also remembering the God who calls Himself “I Am.” He is present in every moment you thought He had forgotten. Like Joseph, you’ll see that God can take what was meant for evil and turn it for good without rewriting history or pretending it didn’t hurt.

We’ll also talk about the quiet trap of nostalgia the way it flatters the past and blinds us to mercy happening right now. Ecclesiastes warns us not to say, “Why were the former days better than these?” because the question itself misses what God is doing in the present.

The gospel calls us into that present tense of grace into the eternal now of the One who is, who holds your scarred story, and who turns those scars into beauty.

If this conversation meets you in that tender place between regret and hope, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs fresh courage, and leave a review so others can find their way to rest and renewal in Christ.
