Sharing Our Stories of Faith With Others--Galatians #6
How can we as a church better focus our lives toward those who are outside of the faith on a daily basis? First, we must ask good questions with genuine interest and concern. Next, we must learn to communicate our stories of faith more effectively. God will continue to use us to be a blessing in the lives of others as we sharpen those skills.

Whosoever Means Me
When we look for people to team up with we look for those who have the greatest skill and talents and show the greatest potential to help us out. When Jesus chose His followers, though, He did not just pick from the religious all-stars of His day but instead chose regular people like fishermen and tax collectors who had real issues, shortcomings, and sinful habits. The call from Jesus to accept His offer of salvation through faith and follow Him is not merely offered to the best and brightest of us but to everyone regardless of race, economic background, personal accomplishments, or moral track record, and He is less concerned with the talents and gifts of His followers and more concerned with their willingness to follow and obey Him.

Living in the Realm of Grace - Galatians #5
What makes the Christian faith like no other? The good news of God’s grace is the bold claim that we are accepted by God not because we “follow the rules” or “fit the mold” but because Jesus gave his own life to rescue us. But many of us are still trying to earn God’s love with our performance rather than living in the freedom that Jesus has provided for us. In Galatians, Paul warns against the danger of religious systems that value people on grounds of accomplishment or status or cultural agreement. These things lock away our freedom in the futility of legalism, moral superiority and cultural arrogance. Focusing on either the racial/ethnic/cultural superiority or the moral successes of good works denies the gospel and divides Jesus’ followers. Join us as we explore how God offers us true freedom in Jesus and how the freedom of Christ transforms our hearts, our minds and lives.
