In this week's episode, Mike and Will dig into Romans 7, tackling the tension every believer feels: why does the law seem to stir up sin instead of stopping it? Along the way, they wrestle with who Paul is actually describing in the chapter's hardest verses, unpack the difference between the "old nature" and the "new man," and get into a real debate over whether addiction is a disease or a choice — sparked by backlash to a sermon clip on porn and substance addiction. They close out with a look at Massachusetts' new late-term abortion law and a broader conversation on feminism, socialism, and where they see spiritual roots underneath it all.
