Romans Series
Imagine a letter written to a group of Christians living in a capital city. A city that was famous throughout the world – and where people were very status conscious. What did the letter say? How should they live as Christians? Especially when they were in the minority – and it was going to be increasingly hard to live for Jesus? What does it have to say about subjects like suffering and character, love, the Holy Spirit, hospitality, and worship?
That is the letter to the Romans. So, what does it really mean? And what does it mean for us today?
