In the final episode of, “Union Police,” we talk about the old man who died with Christ, and yet all too often feels very much alive. Why is that? What do we do when we experience emotions like anxiety or anger? Aren’t we supposed to not feel negative emotions now that we are a new
In part 3 of, “Union Police,” we talk about how our self- and sin-consciousness frame our perception and experience of reality, and how the Gospel is the death of self-consciousness because it is the end of sin (therefore the end of sin-consciousness).

In the final episode of, “The God of Desire,” we examine one more revelation about desire: Desire is about intimacy. It is the foundation of intimacy.
