The Freedom of Our Adoption - Galatians #8
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.

The Story of Us: We Value Relationship with our Community
As a local church, we value our relationship with our community as essential to our identity. John the Baptist provides a good example of someone who saw himself in relationship to his mission. Because he was sent by God, he knew who he was and he knew what to do. John identified himself as one sent by God and that gave him both an identity and mission.
