In this episode, Austin, Alyssa, and Travis take a deep dive into Salvation. Students, you are starting to learn theology! But, we also want to say to the Veritas Youth, don't be scared to listen if you aren't a "deep thinker." We want to make this applicable for your life, and we try to explain it in every day words. We believe this is a very important topic for you to understand as you make your faith your own! This is the first of two episodes. The conversation was a little long, but we didn't want you to miss any of the topics. Stay tuned next week for part two.
In this episode, Austin and Travis ask the question: Who is the main character of your life? Is it all about you? Our culture today would say so, but we don't believe this leads to flourishing. Instead, we think God is the main character of our lives. We talk about the character of God, putting your hope in him, and learning from the way Jesus lived his life. Stay tuned at the end for a little treat!
