What is your life all about- Is it you- The lies of this world seek to feed the self-monster which causes people to turn away from the gospel of grace and turn to a life of self. This affects our relationships. Paul wants to get his relationship back on track with the Galatians, but he is perplexed about them. He shares with us three desires of a passionate pastor who will not rest until he sees Christ formed in the people that he loves. He is a striking contrast of what selfless love does based on the love we have received in Christ. Do you want to give up on people- Is communication hard- Keep going-God's grace will sustain us through love-

God has a glorious intentional purpose for the church. God the Father planned it, God the Son accomplished what the Father required. God the Holy Spirit applies what the Son accomplished. Everything in creation relentlessly serves God's purpose. But God intends for you to serve his purpose daily by seeing it and continually falling in love with it. He wants your life of worship to become an eternity of worship. Ask him to make this your experience now.

There are times in our lives where moving forward seems too hard and moving backward seems more familiar and easier. Paul is helping us see the kinds of conversations we need to have with the backward moving Christian. Conversations that help them see if they are living in the same way before they came to know Christ, that help them see God knows them more than they know God and the investment God has already made in their lives. Join us as we consider each of these conversations to help each other move forward in the Christian life-
