Show: From NAR to Christ with Dawn HillHost: Dawn HillOrganization: Servants of GraceShow Summary

Drawing from Psalm 90, 2 Corinthians 4–5, Job 19, and Romans 5, Dawn reminds listeners that life is brief, eternity is certain, and the Christian’s hope rests not in temporal outcomes but in the finished work of Jesus Christ.This episode also addresses common errors in Word of Faith and New Apostolic Reformation teaching, especially the false idea that death represents Satan’s victory.
