Join Crystal as she continues our study of Galatians. Paul presses on to contradict the false teachings of the Judaizers who were trying to add works to salvation by grace. We are to stand firm in the liberty we have in Christ--we have been freed from the law! However, that liberty is not a license to sin or to continue to live however we please. 

Warren Wiersbe said, “Somewhere between license and legalism is true Christian liberty.”

So the question becomes...

How do we stay in the lane of Christian Liberty and avoid the ditches of license and legalism?

Listen as Crystal shares the answer from Galatians chapter five.

Sheeeesh… is there even a more controversial conversation of the church today?! So so so much hurt wrapped up in that one word, “standards.”

I’d guarantee more people have left the church over the topic of standards than doctrine or any other conversation. 

How many people have not heard the Gospel because we have elevated our standards above the message of the cross? I’m guilty. 

How many people have been made to think that the key to being close to God is through all the high standards we hold dear? (Galatians 2:16, 21)

God has completely crumbled all the things I built to find HIM and only Him, and for that I’m thankful. ❤️

The book of Galatians in its’ entirety is addressing the conversation of standards. We would be wise as the church, to read what Scripture says in context about this topic so that we can with one mind and one voice lift up the message of the cross.

If you want to look back on 2025 and feel successful with what you have done, you’re going to have to get used to putting the work in. You’re going to have to follow through with some plans and some promises. Join Quortney as she talks about follow through and why it’s so important.

“Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness.“ (Psalm 65:11)

Do you want to have a good year? I believe everyone would answer that question with an astounding yes. Although, sometimes as the year progresses we can be sidetracked by all the obstacles. 

Instead our focus should be on the goodness of God and the beauty He creates from every season. 

Listen to this episode as Jackie discusses her word for the year, “Crowned.”

Crystal's "word of the year" for 2025 is TRUST. It's not new, original, or unique but God is using it to stretch and challenge her going into a new year filled with uncertainty. Listen in as she breaks down a familiar passage of Scripture and shares her personal testimony about a big change coming this year!

Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

It has been an honor and a joy to serve the Lord in this ministry here with Her Portion podcast. In this episode, I’m going to share with you how God has me moving on to a different season of life and how my time with Her Portion has come to an end.

At the end of this episode, I have a thought/devotion that I’m sharing with you that I want to leave you with in my last episode and I hope it’s an encouragement to you. Thank you for being a listener. I’m looking forward to what God has for Her Portion in the future and I’m excited to continue listening and sharing the podcast. Thanks for being here!

And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.
I John 2:28

When we abide in Christ, we will keep His commandments. We will walk in the Spirit and bring forth fruit. Our lives will be characterized by the fruit of the spirt: love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance. When we abide in Christ, we can’t help but be DOERS.

Join Crystal as she considers how abiding in Christ will allow us to stand unashamed at His coming.
