Steve Brown

Because I have been a follower of Christ for some time, and been going to church for even longer, I often find myself guilty of skimming over the great news of Christ’s sacrifice and redemption. For the longest time the “dance” that was supposed to be my relationship with Christ felt much more like a “march” (and often times still does). A big aid in keeping the gospel centered in my life has been the teachings/writings of Steve Brown.

A few years back, a friend gave me a book called A Scandalous Freedom by Steve Brown. Through the book, God revealed to me many things about him that I should have seen in the scripture but for some reason didn’t. Steve’s teaching that (if you are a believer) “God isn’t mad at you” helped to change my perspective on my relationship with Christ. In the book, Steve, a former pastor, seminary professor and author, talks about the Freedom offered to a believer through the cross of Christ and its impact on his/her life. Steve’s words have encouraged me when times that I feel down or condemned.

As you can probably tell, I loved the book. I soon found out that Steve Brown puts out a daily radio broadcast/podcast called “Key Life,” and quickly became a huge fan of it as well. On the short broadcast, Steve discusses various topics, “through the eyes of grace.” I really find his teachings very helpful in my walk with Christ and would recommend them especially for Christians that have grown up in the church. If you are interested check it out here or you can find the podcast on iTunes.
