44 min - Christian Beginnings (Galatians 3:1-5)
Have you ever suffered from spiritual amnesia? Sometimes we forget who we are in relation to who God is and what he’s done for us. Brian Hedges says that’s not a great place to be!

Pastor Brian shows us:
(4:43) 1. A Rebuke: Who Has Bewitched You?
(10:18) 2. A Reminder: Back to the Beginning
(32:24) 3. The Appeal: Don’t Stop Believing
