Climbing The Mountain

Climbing The Mountain

How do we face the mountains in life - the fears and tasks we have to overcome? We need the mountain climbing manual called God's Word and the Guide who knows the terrain and how to summit. We can learn from the Galatians, who were about to fall off the mountain because they were relying on their performance and legalistic rituals to make it to the top instead of following their guide, Jesus Christ.

Coaching

Coaches are critical in the development of young men and women. Even adults employ “Life Coaches”. Good coaches must have tender and tough love and be able to tell it like it is. The Apostle Paul was a life coach for the Galatian churches, and he had some strong words when they began trying to earn the salvation they already possessed. Don’t let this misguided thinking hinder your spiritual growth.

Graceland

Are you living in “Lawland” or Graceland? If you're stuck in Lawland trying to please God by your religion, efforts, morality or rules, it’s time for a move to Graceland where there is forgiveness, love, mercy, life and community – it’s where we can grow and follow God in Christ. Are you ready to move to Graceland?

Align Your Life

When our car is out of alignment, we can end up in the ditch. And when things are misaligned in our spiritual life, we drift and eventually wind up in the ditch of a graceless, unforgiving mode of existence. But when we align with God, we have confidence, courage and conviction. Find out about forces that pull us out of alignment in Galatians chapter 2 and how to align or re-align with God.

The Center Will Not Hold

What’s at the center of your life? If it’s anything other than Christ then we won’t be free from anxiety, stress and worry. Things start to shake, and we realize that center not going to hold up against all that life throws at us. We need to live Christ-centered lives that trust in Christ alone. Find out how to do that as we continue to study the book of Galatians.
