Galatians - You too can Live the Spiritual Life

November 24, 2024 • Jim Congdon • Galatians 5:13–14, Galatians 5:15–17, Romans 7:15, Romans 7:18, Galatians 5:18–26

Christ sets us free when we’re born into His family through faith. But that’s just the beginning! In this week’s message, Pastor Jim talks about how we can live free by walking in step with the Holy Spirit. When we walk by the Spirit, we avoid the trench of legalism on one side and the sewer of libertinism on the other. We are also free to grow the fruit of the Spirit instead of being enslaved by the deeds of the flesh.

Galatians - Freedom in Christ

November 17, 2024 • Jeremy McGrath • Galatians 5:1, Galatians 5:2–12, Galatians 5:13–15

Who makes us free, and why? Pastor Jeremy tackles those questions this week. We may be tempted to think we can set ourselves free from sin by doing everything just right, or that freedom means we can do anything we want, but both of these ideas are wrong. Instead, Christ is the one who sets us free, and He does it so that we can be free to love God and others.

Galatians - Slavery vs Freedom

November 10, 2024 • Connor Kraus • Galatians 4:28–31, Galatians 4:8–9, Galatians 4:21–26

This week, we look at the conclusion of Paul’s argument to the Galatians about what it means to be God’s children. Pastor Connor guides us through a tale of two sons: one enslaved and one free. When we belong to God’s family, we are children of promise, free and righteous because of God’s grace through Christ. He delivers us from the hopeless slavery of trying to justify ourselves through works of the Law.

Galatians - Children of the King

November 3, 2024 • Connor Kraus • Galatians 4:1–7, Galatians 3:27–29

We often talk about “God the Father” or being “a child of God,” but what does that actually mean? This week, Pastor Connor digs into Galatians to answer that question. He also talks about what it takes to become a child of God, as well as how it changes us to be part of God’s family.
