UGP 102 - International experiences - Grace Means Not Earning God's Favor

TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE

Lynn starts off the podcast with the story of Temple Square security scaring her young grandkids when they came to see Santa. Police in Spain take Joel and Steve Dealy to the police parking garage for a chat. Lynn talks about what it was like to be a Mormon approached by Christians at the Nauvoo Pageant. Lynn explains what the Bible means when it says "faith without works is dead" and how different that is from how many religions use this verse.  It's a fast-moving, multi-faceted episode with both humor and hope.
