Episode 259: 259. Why Isn't Everything Worse? Exploring God's Common Grace

In this episode of MARSCAST, Dr. Andrew Compton is joined by colleagues Dr. J. Mark Beach and alumnus and pastor Rev. Steve Swets to explore the theological concept of common grace. They unpack various definitions of common grace, distinguish it from saving grace, and analyze how Scripture uses terms for "grace" in both narrow and broader contexts. Through their scholarly yet accessible discussion, they highlight how Reformed theology reconciles God's goodness toward all creation with a robust doctrine of human depravity.
