Galatians 6:15

Don’t give up! Keep on doing good. Don’t get tired in doing what you know is right, because in the end you will receive the reward—you’ll reap the harvest. God has His right time.

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. 

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.

One of the earliest documents of the Christian church, Galatians, is written to believers struggling to understand the social dynamics of their new life in Christ. Galatians powerfully explores how Jesus, as Israel’s Messiah, rescues humanity, inviting everyone into a family marked by personal faith that answers Jesus’ perfect faithfulness. Scholar N.T. Wright guides you through the climactic passages of Galatians, providing insight into Paul’s argument for Gentile inclusion.
