Special Episode – The Church, Session 1: The Marks of the Church
We are taking a few weeks to let you know about some of the teaching material Media Gratiae has produced outside our podcasts. In previous special episodes we have highlighted Behold Your God: The Weight of Majesty and Behold Your God: Rethinking God Biblically.
This week we want to present you with a unique production for us. In Church: Pillar and Ground of the Truth, we created both a feature-length documentary and a 12-session study walking through church history and careful ecclesiology. If you would like more information after watching the first session of the study, follow this link: https://shop.mediagratiae.org/collections/the-whole-counsel-specials

10 Years of Beholding God: Richard Owen Roberts, pt. 2
At this time 10 years ago we had just released our flagship study, Behold Your God: Rethinking God Biblically. To celebrate a decade of the Lord’s blessing on this study, we are releasing the complete interviews from the project. Some men sat down with us for slightly over 30 minutes. Richard Owen Roberts gave us nearly two hours of his time.
Because we have such a wealth of answers from him, we are presenting to you part two of our interview with him. During this segment, we ask him questions regarding the use of Scripture to gain a clear understanding of Christ and our holiness, and how we can pursue holiness in our day.
