“Toxic Christianity!” This is not a phrase that we often hear in the life of the church. But unfortunately, it is something that people often experience in the life of the church. My hope is that we can experience healing and wholeness in Christ for the ways that we have been harmed by the church, and we can learn about ways that we have contributed to other people’s harm as we strive to be the people that God has called us to be. We continue our series by talking about Legalism.” Associated Scripture: Galatians 2:15-21
