Episode Title: How to Have Victory Over Persistent Recurring Sins

📖 Romans 6:1–14

🔔 Welcome

Welcome to The Bible Project Daily Podcast! In today’s episode, we visit one of the most practical and transformative passages in the book of Romans: how believers can experience real victory over recurring, persistent sin. Romans 6:1–14 doesn’t just offer theology—it offers hope, power, and a new way of living.

Is grace a license to sin? What does it mean to be “dead to sin” and “alive to God”? If you've ever felt trapped in habits you can’t shake or guilt you can’t escape, this message is for you. We'll walk through three simple but powerful steps: Know. Believe. Present. And we’ll see that grace doesn’t merely forgive—it transforms.

📝 Episode Notes

 Key Themes:

• Grace is not an excuse for sin, but the very power to overcome it.
• In Christ, we’ve been spiritually united with His death and resurrection.
• We are no longer slaves to sin—we are alive to God.

Outline of the Message:

1. Know – You died with Christ and are now alive to God. (vv. 3–5)
2. Believe – Your old self is dead; you are no longer a slave to sin. (vv. 6–10)
3. Present – Offer yourself to God as someone brought from death to life. (vv. 11–14)

Key Verse:

“Reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” — Romans 6:11

🙏 Be Encouraged.

You are not powerless. You are not hopeless. If you are in Christ, you are a new creation. You can live in victory—not perfectly, but increasingly—because of what Christ has done. Let’s walk in that newness of life together.
