Who's Your Mommy? (Galatians 4:21-31)
All of us desperately and daily need the nurture of God's grace.
Gospel Minded - South
Acts 15 describes a discussion between the apostles and the Christians who were strict Pharisees before coming to Jesus. It’s performance vs. grace. Religion vs. Grace. It would appear that the majority of western Christianity is still “religion minded” rather than “gospel minded”. Which side are we on?

Listen to the Law!, Part 5
In Galatians 4:21-31, Paul appeals to the analogy of Hagar and Sarah to illustrate how those who rely on self-effort end up in sin and bondage whereas those who trust in God’s promise receive salvation and freedom.
Psalm 103: God is Gracious
Psalm 103 is a feast. David, a man of great power and importance, the king of Israel, is preaching to his own soul about who God is and what God has done. David knows that our biggest temptation is to forgetfulness - "bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits" - so he's written Psalm 103 as a way to remember. In it he recalls his own frailty, a great antidote to pride and self-reliance. But he spends the vast majority of the Psalm remembering and delighting himself in the abundance of God's grace in forgiving, healing, redeeming, crowning, and satisfying the hearts of the needy and broken. Psalm 103 is a feast for those who by grace are becoming aware of their emptiness, frailty, and sin. God is gracious!
