(Galatians 5:13-26) 

"The best way, the only way, finally, of expressing a life of freedom is through an act of love." Eugene Peterson

(Galatians 5:1-14)

God's desire is not that we perform the right actions but that we become the right kinds of people. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love. 

(Galatians 3:21-4:6) 

God's desire is not that we perform the right actions but that we become the right kinds of people. When religion becomes a relationship it changes how you relate to scripture, to others, and how you relate to God.

(1 Corinthians 15:3,4,11) Easter Sunday "Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, he was buried, that he was raised on the third day... this is what we preach, and this is what you believed."

(Galatians 3:1-22)

"Are you so foolish? After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by human effort?" Galatians 3:3

(Galatians Ch 1&2)

"Some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ." There's a huge difference between religion and Grace: 1) Religion demands performance, Grace offers acceptance. 2) Religion focuses on Conformity, Grace promotes Authenticity. 3) Religion insists on Obedience, Grace gives freedom to live. 

(Matthew 28:16-20, Acts 1:1-9; Matthew 16:17-19) Pastor Ken Jensen takes time to share a number of key thoughts and a few personal reflections during a Sunday morning gathering in the worship center as the congregation celebrates the 20th anniversary of Northgate Christian Fellowships presence in Benicia.  

(Mark 2) Do you ever pray knowing that God CAN answer, and hoping that that He WILL answer, but secretly feeling that He probably WON'T answer?

What would your life look like if you made prayer a focus?

Few things inhibit our prayer like unanswered prayers. How can we still pray when God seems silent?
