Length: 31 mins 11 secs Plays: 1

Speaker: Isaiah Maynard - Week four of our Gospel Growth: A Theology of Mercy and Compassion. Welcome to the last week of our four-week series through our Gospel Growth: A Theology of Mercy and Compassion. For the last of our time today I’d like to start by briefly reviewing the past three weeks. Then, I’d like to spend the rest of our remaining time talking about what it looks like for us to live out a theology of mercy and compassion here in Salt Lake City, and at Gospel Grace. With any teaching, we do not want to merely fill our minds with knowledge of the theoretical—instead we want to be transformed by truth, and have our actions and lives changed. James said it better: "But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves." (James 1:22).
