Free Indeed!: verse by verse study of the book of Galatians

Welcome to the book of Galatians! I’m excited to spend the next 12 weeks looking at this epistle together, Free Indeed! Jesus said in John 8:36, “So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.” What did Jesus mean? I think a major key to understanding this freedom, the freedom that Christ gave us through His finished work on the cross, will be understood through the book of Galatians. Want a one-sentence sum-up? Freedom is defined as life in the Spirit, by faith in the finished work of Christ. Don’t worry; we’ll spend the next 12 weeks looking at what this means. The book of Galatians has radically changed how I view the Christian life. It has changed my view on HOW we grow as believers. Honestly, I have been really stretched through studying this little book and I pray you will be too—that you will grow deeper and be led more and more into the freedom that has been purchased for you, by Christ. At times it might be uncomfortable but remember growing pains hurt sometimes but the burn is good! My prayer is for your growth in grace, the grace that you have in Christ through the new covenant. As believers, we are free and that is supposed to “look like” something in our everyday lives!
