The Flesh and the Spirit
Romans 8:1–5
The messages in this book were first studied and preached during April and May of 2020. Readers will likely recognize those dates — they were the early days of the COVID-19 “stay-at-home” order. I preached these sermons to an empty auditorium, rows of cold seats, and for the first time, an audience on camera instead of in person.
The original messages are still available in the first edition online, but I’ve long desired to revisit and refine them — to present this rich truth in a more polished way. Along the way, I also developed other resources from this material:
- A children’s edition (Step by Jesus with Jesus)
- A teenager edition (Step by Step with Jesus)
- A bedtime devotional for parents with little ones (up to age 3) (🌟 Step by Step with Jesus, A 30-Day Bedtime Devotional for Kids
- And even a family altar version to help households grow together in the Lord. (Walking in the Spirit — A 30-Day Family Altar Journey Through Romans 8:1–5)
It’s my joy to offer these editions now, prayerfully designed to meet believers at every stage of life as we learn to walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
