Summary: Jason Benedict grew up in the church but went through a period of rebellion all too common among those in college. Then after he observed a massive life-change in his brother, which included some convicting preaching as well, Jason chose to repent and accept the forgiveness available through Jesus Christ. But, his story doesn't end there, from that time he embarked on an extremely zealous quest to earn God's love which eventually led to burnout and despair. Even so, God did not leave him there, but sent a messenger, Jason's cousin, to share truths about Jesus which opened Jason's eyes and brought his relationship with God to the next level--where he could accept God's love without feeling a need to work for it. Through his story Jason Benedict talks about how his perception of salvation shifted from one side to the other and what the biblical balance is between grace and responsibility. Listen in to this lively conversation as we embark on a series of shows to address the critical subject of salvation. Jason pastored a home church for a number of years and now contributes at Living Hope Community Church as one of the teachers for our Biblical Education Classes.
