What's Your Plan for Getting Out of Debt?
“When you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He [God] made you alive together with Him [Jesus Christ], having forgiven us all our transgressions, having canceled out the certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us, which was hostile to us; and He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross” (Colossians 2:13-14).
Debt is a catastrophic problem. From a financial standpoint, the United States has reached our “debt ceiling”, the maximum amount -- $14.3 trillion -- that the country can legally be in debt. And debt isn’t just a problem in government: the average credit card debt balance for every American household is over $10,000.
There’s another kind of debt that is even more serious than the financial kind -- the “sin debt” that each one of us owes to God. We may be able to somehow avoid paying back our financial debts, but our sin debt to God must and will be paid back in full. But how? How can we pay back our incalculable sin debt to God?
We will discuss debt this week on The Christian Worldview -- the national kind and the spiritual kind. Tune in to to find out how you can get out of the weight and sentence of debt!

As cultural hostility toward Christianity intensifies, many Christians have grown more reluctant to advocate for biblical values in the public square. But our perseverance for the common good—a good defined by God alone—is more important than ever in a culture that embraces darkness.
