Didaché - Interview with Jim Osman and Dave Rich and Their Latest Book God Doesn't Try
In this compelling episode of Didaché, Justin Peters sits down with authors Jim Osman and Dave Rich to discuss their groundbreaking book God Doesn't Try. Peters facilitates an in-depth conversation about how modern evangelical Christianity often misrepresents God's nature by suggesting He "tries" to accomplish various things, inadvertently implying the possibility of failure.
The authors explain their motivation behind writing the book, breaking down key chapters that address how God doesn't try to save people, sanctify believers, speak, provide, or build His church. He does these things according to His sovereign will. Throughout the discussion, they challenge common evangelical phrases and mindsets that diminish God's sovereignty while emphasizing how understanding God's absolute sovereignty coupled with His goodness provides true comfort for believers.
