Episode 17 of The Olive Tree podcast continues the conversation from Episode 16, “No Chains: The Gospel Promise,” which focused on salvation as deliverance from sin’s power through Christ. Episode 17 continues the Gospel’s victory, focusing on the obligation of faith. Romans 6–8 and Finney’s teachings reveal how true faith—surrendering fully to Christ as Lord—frees us from sin’s grip. From the Red Sea to David’s victory, Scripture shows victory over sin is possible now. Subscribe for new episodes every Sunday at 7:00 a.m., rooted in Scripture, inspiring discipleship.
