Pastor Brian and Pastor Kristin wrap up their study of Galatians this week! This week's episode focuses on chapter 6 and Paul's final argument for following the way of Christ in freedom. This way includes ding good to all around us and seeking the prosperity of those we come in contact with everyday. It also means that we are to die to ourselves and this world in order to embrace the new creation that Jesus has for each of us.

This week Brian and Kristin discuss Galatians 5 and it's ramifications for the modern church. They talk about this passage in the context of community and how living out the fruit of the spirit should impact, not just us as individuals, but our entire community.

We are children of the promise according to Paul as he pleads with the Galatians to choose their freedom in Christ over the futility of the Law. Happy New Year from Pastors Brian and Kristin and the Pursuit Friends Network of House Churches family! This is our first episode of the year!

The pastors of Pursuit Friends Network of House Churches discuss Galatians 4:1-20 in this week's episode of Joy & Java! Paul makes a passionate and emotional plea to the Galatians to bring their attention back to Jesus. We often find ourselves distracted or even deceived for seasons in our lives and require the same kind of plea from a friend, a family member, or even a co-worker - to focus our attention on the right thing.

Grab a cup of coffee, your Bible, and join Kristin and Brian as they dive into chapter 4 of the book of Galatians.

Brian and Kristin work through Galatians 3:15-29! Grab a cup of coffee and your Bible and join the conversation.

Pastor Kristin and Pastor Brian are back to talk about the faith of Abraham and how Paul brilliantly uses this pillar of faith to show the church in Galatia what they need to get back to focusing on. Galatians 3:1-14 is the passage for this episode.

Brian and Kristin continue their study of Galatians as they wrap up chapter 2. Paul confronts Peter about a major issue concerning salvation and how the Law can't save anyone. It's the graceful and loving act of Jesus that covers our sins and allows us to enter into an eternal relationship with Him. In Christ's act we find true freedom from the burden of the Law (in being perfect to gain salvation).

In this special episode Pastor Kristin gives Pastor Brian an update on how our Wednesday night Zoom Bible study is going. They are studying prayer and Kristin excitedly shares the content in this spirited discussion!

Paul is one fiery guy! In fact, it's probably what helped him accomplish all that he did for the early church and the spread of the gospel, even though he spent significant time in prison! This week Pastor Brian Donahue and Pastor Kristin Aull continue their study in Galatians and discuss Paul's fiery and passionate defense of the simple gospel.

Pastor Kristin and Pastor Brian finish out the first chapter of Galatians and it's emphasis on Paul's authority and call to teach the true gospel.
