CredoWhy is humility essential to theology? Kelly Kapic and Matthew BarrettWhen Jesus washes his disciples' feet he is not just giving them a picture of the type of salvation he has come to accomplish, but he is showing them the means by which he will accomplish that salvation as well. Moreover, Jesus commands his disciples to follow his example and sacrificially serve one another in humility. Paul also makes much of the humility of Christ when he instructs the Philippians what life in the covenant community is supposed to look like. If theology is "faith seeking understanding," how does humility connect to theology? Many great minds of the Christian faith h...2022-03-0854 min

Mere Fidelity‘You’re Only Human,’ with Kelly KapicWe humans have a complicated relationship with our limits. We constantly push them; expand them; try to circumvent them. But limits are inherent to Creation. Why would God, who could have made the world in an instant, use a process instead? And what does this mean for our own process of sanctification, which we often want to be instantaneous? Matt, Derek, and Alastair jump into these questions with Dr. Kelly Kapic, the author of You're Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God's Design and Why That's Good News.

The list of demands on our time seems to be never ending. It can leave you feeling a little guilty--like you should always be doing one more thing.
Rather than sharing better time-management tips to squeeze more hours out of the day, Kelly Kapic takes a different approach in You're Only Human. He offers a better way to make peace with the fact that God didn't create us to do it all.
