Overview

God Wants a Relationship, Not a Performance takes a look at the wonderfully written script for successful living found in Romans 5–8. But the drama is not about us doing our best to try to impress God. It’s about God doing what we could never do. When it comes to victorious living in the Christian life, God takes the leading role. However, we too often convince ourselves a human being is capable of performing to please god. Our human performance just doesn’t cut it with God. Only our acceptance of Jesus Christ as the Savior and Lord of our lives brings heaven to its feet.
