Today society is bombarded with issues which demand the attention of the Church—the body of Christ. From social injustices to racism, the world needs Godly solutions.

Forgiveness is at the very heart of our Christian faith, but the uncommon virtue of positively rebuking someone in love is little understood.

In this five-day study, we explore what the Bible says about the subject, from celebrating our diversity of talents to the grand vision of every tribe, tongue, and nation joining together to worship God.

Are you caught up in doing good deeds, but missing the gospel of faith? Are you feeling discouraged by faith based in works? Paul addresses this exact issue in Galatians and explores the foundational truth of the freedom of faith in Jesus Christ. Galatians offers a celebration of the freedom of grace and re-centers your focus on the law of love in God in three parts: the gospel of grace defined, the gospel of grace examined and the gospel of grace applied. 

When you’re asked to explain the gospel, how do you describe the Bible’s teaching about salvation? The five solas of the Reformation were formulated to summarize the good news: we’re saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, as revealed in Scripture alone, to the glory of God alone. This 5-day study shows you these truths as they appear on the Bible’s pages.

Understanding and delighting in God's law? Sign me up! The questions around the promises of God, obedience to the law, and faith are ancient. Like Israel and the early church, believers today desire to obey the Lord. We desire to grow in our faith, and we feel the tension of wanting to “do” the right thing when it comes to our faith. Join Bible teacher Kristie Anyabwile in this 5-day plan as we study how the New Testament church grappled with these issues of obedience to the law and faith in Christ.

Faith is living each day with an awareness that although we do not deserve anything but God’s judgement because of our guilt and sin and failure, He has done something about it through the Lord Jesus Christ! That is our freedom, just knowing this and trusting Him day by day.

Galatians was written as a strong rebuke of false teaching that infiltrated the churches in Galatia. Paul’s central argument reaffirms the foundation of the gospel: “a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ” (Galatians 2:16). Galatians reminds us to walk in the freedom of the true, untainted gospel and warns us against submitting again to the slavery of works-based salvation.
