Hello and welcome to the Faith First Podcast, I’m Jonathan Gouthier, your host and a pastor here at First Church in Torrington, CT. I remember being at my grandparents and having to use a sickle to chop down small shrubs to make a way through the forest to get to where we wanted to go. It was tough and tiring. Some of us act that way in trying to get to God. In today’s episode, our Lead Pastor Steve Darr is in the recording studio with me to chat about how the Way has been made. Welcome Steve.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• Why do we try to find our own way to God?
• What is it about the Cross of Christ that has us thinking that there has to be another way?
• How do we eliminate the anxiety, fear, and guilt in our lives to accept that Christ made a way?
• What power is found in the cross of Christ? And why is it important to recognize what Jesus did?

Through the Cross, the way has been made for us to be free from sin and death. Through the Cross, the way has been made for us to be reconciled to God and live righteous lives. Through the Cross, the way is made for us to know we are loved as true children of God.
