What’s really wrong with the world and why does it seem so hard to fix? In Romans 3:15–18, the apostle Paul shows us a difficult but necessary truth: the problem isn’t just around us; it’s inside us. This episode reveals the sobering reality of human depravity. People rush toward violence. They break trust, destroy relationships, and live without peace or reverence for God.

Stephen Davey walks you through these verses to uncover why people live destructively and why peace is so rare. You’ll see that sin isn’t just an action. It’s a path, and most of the world is walking it without even realizing where it leads. Paul calls it “the road most traveled,” and it ends in destruction.

But even in this bleak picture, there’s hope. Understanding the problem is the first step toward embracing the solution. This episode prepares your heart for the message of redemption that comes next in Romans.

If you’ve ever asked why our world is so broken, or if you’re searching for peace with God, this episode will help you see both the cause of our unrest and the only cure. The road to peace isn’t found in trying harder. It’s found in trusting Christ.
