0:00.0	Welcome to the Paul Tripp podcast, where pastor and bestselling author Paul David Tripp connects the transforming power of Jesus Christ to everyday life.
0:11.3	On the first day of each month, we release grace and knowledge, a more in-depth article from Paul that allows him to expand on biblical truths beyond his weekly Wednesday's word.
0:20.6	Our prayer is that this resource
0:22.2	helps you grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. To him be the glory
0:26.7	now and to the day of eternity. Amen. 2. Peter 318. Today's grace and knowledge article

1:49.6	The isolated, confidential, Jesus and Me version of Christianity that often marks modern
1:55.0	church culture is not the Christianity described in the New Testament.
1:59.5	We find an excellent example of communal Christianity
2:02.1	in 2 Corinthians 1, 8 through 11. The Apostle Paul writes, quote, for we do not want you to be
