Welcome to Broken and Redeemed—real talk, real faith, real life.
Welcome back to The Broken and Redeemed Podcast! In this episode, Eric, Jenny, and Jessica sit down with Josh and Natasha for a heartfelt conversation about legalism in the church—what it is, how it shaped our faith, and the freedom Christ offers beyond rules and guilt. Through scripture, honest conversation, and encouragement, they explore the difference between legalism and grace, offering hope, freedom, and a deeper understanding of what it means to live in Christ. Whether you’ve wrestled with church expectations, battled guilt from man-made rules, or struggled to reconcile God’s love with legalistic teaching, this episode invites you into an honest dialogue about what it really means to live in Christ.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Personal stories of how legalism creates fear, pride, and spiritual burnout. Biblical insights on how Jesus and Paul confronted Pharisees, Judaizers, and false standards. The difference between God’s judgment and discipline—and why His love is never withheld. Practical encouragement for unlearning guilt, rebuilding faith on Christ alone, and finding spiritual freedom. How authentic Christian community and vulnerability help us walk in grace together.
