He gifts us his grace not because we worked hard for it or are good enough, but just because He loves us through Christ. That's the heart of being saved by grace alone – it's a free gift from God, no strings attached.2023-11-0810 min

Unashamed TruthGrace AloneSometimes grace is difficult to understand because we want to believe we have actually contributed something to salvation. However, the Protestant Reformers come along and point to what Scripture says, that salvation is by grace alone. All we contribute to our salvation is our sin, and the saving from sin comes from Christ through grace alone. In this episode, Grant Castleberry shows us that grace is one of the most glorious doctrines of Scripture.2023-11-0120 min

Unashamed TruthChrist AloneThe doctrine of Solus Christus, or Christ alone, is the heartbeat of Reformation Theology. That is, Jesus Christ is the only path to salvation.

In today’s episode, Grant explains why and how Christ alone is the only path of salvation. He also introduces us to the Reformer, John Calvin, and what Calvin had to say on the subject of Christ alone.2023-10-2514 min

Unashamed TruthScripture and the GospelConversion in the gospel is intrinsically linked to the Word of God. Scripture stands as the cornerstone for authentic faith.

Unashamed TruthThe Honor of God and the GospelIn today's episode, Grant focuses on the honor of God as revealed through Jesus' Great Commission.

Unashamed TruthThe Mercy of GodOn today’s episode, Grant Castleberry looks at the Apostle Paul and how his life stands as a compelling testimony that God's mercy isn't just an abstract theological concept, but a tangible reality that invigorates and sanctifies every fiber of our being. And, let us not forget, dear believers, that this same unchanging and inexhaustible mercy of God is available to each of us. It offers us sustenance in our moments of weakness, encouragement amidst our bouts of despair, and propels us forward towards the prize of Christ. 2023-09-1312 min

Unashamed TruthHonoring God PerfectlyWe all have people we look up to — our parents, a mentor, a friend, a hero — someone we want to model ourselves after.

Unashamed TruthWho Are We?In today's world, our culture often confuses our understanding of our true identity. Yet, when we turn to Scripture, we are constantly reminded of a profound truth: every individual is beautifully and purposefully created in the image of God. On today’s episode, Grant turns to the words of David, in Psalm 8, who offers us an insightful perspective that guides us towards a deeper understanding of our place in God’s creation. It reminds us that our inherent worth doesn't stem from accolades or self-perceptions but from the undeniable fact that we are the handiwork of a majestic God. 2023-08-0916 min

Unashamed TruthLove Your EnemiesIn today’s episode, Grant Castleberry delves into a topic we often avoid — extending love to our enemies. The capacity to love one’s enemies is a measure of authentic wisdom for followers of Christ. In other words, a genuinely wise and obedient believer approaches their enemies with a disposition dramatically different from worldly norms. Scripture instructs us to shower our enemies with kindness, pray for those who are against us, and love those who may take advantage of us. As believers, our resemblance to our heavenly Father is never more profound than when we exhibit love for our enemie 2023-08-0209 min
