Between Sundays | The Podcast

What if the way you see yourself is contradicting what Jesus says about you?In this episode of Between Sundays, Neil confronts the spirit of religion and the lie that the finished work of Christ was not enough to make us righteous and holy. Through mulitple passages of Scripture, we unpack what it means for believers to be made righteous, holy, and whole in Christ.This conversation challenges old covenant thinking, exposes the limits of self-effort, and invites you to hear God’s declaration over your life: in Christ, you are not unclean, barely tolerated, or spiritually second-class. You are the righteousness of God, the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit, and a new creation.Wholeness does not begin when you finally get yourself together. It begins when you hear the name God calls you.-------Want more content like this?

In Ephesians 4, Paul calls the church to “walk worthy” of the calling we have received. But before he ever tells us how to walk, he spends three chapters showing us what God has already done.That order is important.The gospel is not, “Walk worthy so God will bless you.” The gospel is, “Because God has already blessed you with every spiritual blessing in Christ…therefore, walk worthy.”In this episode, Neil walks through Paul’s language in Ephesians 4 and shows how our lives are meant to carry the weight of the grace we’ve been given. The sacrifice of Jesus is not something we admire from a distance. It is something we respond to with our whole lives.And thankfully, God has not left us to walk worthy in our own strength. He has given us the Holy Spirit, gifted leaders, and the Body of Christ to form us, equip us, and mature us until the invisible Christ becomes visible through His people again.Refuse the lie of independence, walk worthy together, and show the world what God is like.----Want more content like this?

This episode centers on one of the great mysteries at the heart of the gospel: union with God. Using Ephesians 1:7–10 as a springboard, Neil shows what it means to be created in the image of God, what was lost in Adam, and what has been restored in Christ. This teaching pushes past a gospel of mere sin management and into the staggering reality that God’s design was always to gather us into oneness with Himself. From Genesis to Ephesians, this message traces the story of humanity’s separation from God and Christ’s rescue mission to restore us to our original design. Neil shows that salvation is not the finish line, but the doorway into a life of union, communion, and re-presenting God in the earth. This episode will challenge the shallow assumptions many believers have inherited and call listeners into the deeper mystery of what it means to live in Christ. ------For more resources, books, and information about Neil, visit NeilBroere.com

Are we passive in salvation, or does God require a response God requires from us? In this episode, Neil Broere answers a question many people wonder: What’s my role in being born again?

Neil also offers two practical ways to examine whether we are truly born again: grief over sin and the fruit of the Spirit.
