In this next section of Galatians, Paul reminds us of four essential qualities of a healthy Christian faith.

We had intended to have a guest speaker this week, but had to cancel service last-minute because of ominous weather reports regarding Hurricane Henri. Instead, Pastor Ryan offered a livestream reflection on John 2, when Jesus turns water into wine. Trust that "the best is saved for last"!

Galatians 4:8 - 4:20 reveals several things about how things are, including the fact that the Church has always had to struggle to be what it is meant to be. But Jesus said that the gates of Hell would not prevail.

Paul said that when the Holy Spirit dwells in us he cries out: "Abba! Father!" What does that mean?

There are two main ways to think about yourself: (1) As an orphan in the universe, (2) As a child of the Creator. Jesus taught us to embrace the second option.

Part of the Bible records the Law God gave Moses. In Galatians, Paul argues that obedience to this Law is not necessary for being part of the family of God. But if that's the case, what was the point of the Law? How should we view the parts of the Bible that contain the Law today?

In this next part of Galatians, Paul appeals to both the Galatians' experience and to the Scriptures to combat the false teachers.

This week we continued our series on the Book of Galatians by looking at Paul's confrontation with Peter: one apostle publicly rebuked another. Why? And what can we learn from the confrontation?

This Sunday we began a new series on Paul's letter to the Galatians. Of all Paul's New Testament letters, Galatians might be his angriest. But when we consider what made Paul angry, it may be his most encouraging letter, too. Paul was defending the Gospel from false teachers. This morning we identified what their error was, and why that error was so important.
