John Elmore 

Galatians 2:1-10

Pastor John reminded us that the Gospel that saves and transforms is unchanging, and we must be careful not to “paint over” grace with the law or our own efforts. True freedom and lasting impact come not from our striving, but from abiding in Christ and faithfully living out the role He’s entrusted to us.

Do you run in vain?

Do you have freedom?

Do you run in your lane?

Life Group Discussion:

In what ways are we tempted to “paint over” the Gospel with rules, rituals, or personal effort?

What areas of your life might still lack freedom, and how can the Gospel transform those places?

Why do you think it’s easy to compare our calling to others instead of focusing on the lane God has given us?
