“But God, being rich in mercy . . . made us alive together with Christ.” Nothing is more essential to Christianity than this truth from Ephesians 2:4–5. In this conversation recorded at TGC27, Ligon Duncan and Michael Lawrence explore the nature of Christian conversion, contrasting the historical trend in American Protestantism that reduced conversion to a personal decision with the biblical view: conversion is a divine work of God followed by human response through repentance and faith.
