Hi, this is John.
And today on Theocast, Justin, and I want to talk to you about the wrestling of the soul, where often the world and Christianity presents that there should be this moving upward and this constant improvement, yet you feel dark
and distant, and you feel as something is shadowing over you.
And not only that, we want to introduce to you a subject that often is ignored: the spiritual realm, the dark kingdom that comes in and distracts and attacks the believer.
It's an introductory conversation.
We are really excited to introduce this to you.
We're redoing an episode that we had launched, really, the first episode we ever did, The Dark Side of Christianity.
We hope you enjoy.

Welcome to Theocast, encouraging worry pilgrims to rest in Christ, conversations about the Christian life from a reformed pastoral and confessional perspective.
Our joy and hope today is to clarify the gospel and reclaim the purpose of the kingdom.
And if the shot looks different, for those of you watching, it is.
Yeah.
I'm in Asheville, North Carolina, with Justin, who is one of the hosts, Justin Perdue, pastor of Covenant Baptist Church in Asheville, North Carolina.
And I am John Moffitt.
I'm pastor of Grace Reform Church in Spring Hill, Tennessee.
And you will definitely going to hear birds, cars, semis, trains, all the things because we're recording birds in his office, but it actually has a cars, plains, whatever.
