Before we open Romans 7, Pastor Thomas Kulp shares something personal. In this episode of the Glorify & Grow podcast, he tells the story of how God finally answered a long-surrendered prayer for a worship leader — and a childhood memory of a German Shepherd, 500 stitches, and the day "The Old Rugged Cross" opened his eyes at his great-grandmother's funeral.

From a grandmother whose restaurant signs simply read "just believe," Pastor Thomas sets up what he calls one of the most practical, emotionally charged chapters in all of Paul's writing — Romans 7 — and boils the message down to three words: obey or disobey.

If you've ever given your life to Jesus and still found yourself fighting the same battle, this is the honest, real-life lead-in to a chapter that speaks straight to it.

In this episode:
 • A "God thing" — the answered prayer for a worship team
 • Why "just believe" planted the first seeds of faith
 • Reading Romans in its Jewish context — law, works, and grace
 • The three-word heart of Romans 7: obey or disobey
