Adam Griffin, Chelsea Griffin, and Cassie Bryant are joined by Kyle Worley to discuss union with Christ.

Questions Covered in This Episode:

• What books do you have coming out and how do people make sure they don’t miss them when they get released?
• Is it okay to say that being a Christian is someone who “Jesus has come to live in their heart?” Does Jesus live in them or do they live in Jesus or is it both?
• What part of your teaching on Union with Christ do you find that people are always responding to or find that it seems new?
• Why is understanding union with Christ important for parents who want to share their faith with their kids?
• How does Home with God relate to our trinitarian theology and can it help us make that clear for our families?
• What’s the benefit right now of union with God?
• What is “not yet” true about us in our union with Christ that we are still looking toward or waiting for?
• Has putting all of this thought and writing into this theological concept affected how you think about your own home – your family?

Helpful Definitions:

• Union with Christ: The believer's unbreakable, unshakeable, unchangeable, union with Christ Jesus. It means that we are now in Christ Jesus and nothing can change that. What can be said of Christ, can be said of us. 
• Communion with Christ: Fellowship with God. The enjoyment of God’s saving benefits, it is shakeable and breakable and you can also deepen it.
