In this episode of Confessing the Faith, Mike Thezier and Joe Anady discuss the doctrine of limited atonement. This is probably the most disputed and often misunderstood of the five points of Calvinism. It is not unimportant, though. After all, we are talking about the atonement here! We are asking the question, what did Christ accomplish on the cross? Though it is a difficult subject, it is worthy of our consideration.
Joe Anady interviews Owen Paun, who, along with his wife Nansi, are ministering in Sofia, Bulgaria – a Slavic country in Southeastern Europe that borders Greece and Turkey.
