Galatians - Week NINE
Monday Nov 25, 2019
Monday Nov 25, 2019
Speaker: Ben Hilson
Scripture: Galatians 5:1-15
Welcome to Week Nine in our series out of the book of Galatians.Paul opens Chapter 5 by driving home the central thesis of his letter to the Galatians: Freedom is at the core of the Gospel.
We tend to insert ourselves into the grace equation. Our western culture emphasizes personal performance and achievement, so it's natural for us to let this mode of thinking distort the nature of the Gospel. Paul corrects this error by reminding us that neither religion nor irreligion have any power to establish us in relationship with God. Faith in Jesus is the only thing that counts.
Inviting the Holy Spirit to transform our hearts with this truth enable us to love others with the proper motivation. When we internalize the fact that our freedom is not dependent on our works, we free ourselves from fear—and in turn move from self-obsession to selfless loving.

Galatians - Week EIGHT:
Sunday Nov 17, 2019
Sunday Nov 17, 2019
Speaker: Jon Thompson
Scriptures: Galatians 4:21-28
Sermon Description:
Welcome to Week Eight in our series out of the book of Galatians. Are we truly trusting in God’s promise or are we more committed to our performance?
In these verses, Paul uses the story of Issac and Ishmael to further illustrate his point. Both Isaac and Ishmael are sons of Abraham, but with two completely different destinies. One is a slave and one is free, one is born out of normal, natural everyday means while the other was the impossible becoming possible.
We, too must learn to trust in the promise and not on our own performance.

Galatians - Week SEVEN: The Spirit Of Adoption
Monday Nov 11, 2019
Monday Nov 11, 2019
Speaker: Jon Thompson
Scripture: Galatians 4:1-20
Welcome to Week Seven in our series out of the book of Galatians. As we enter into Chapter 4 the story gets more personal, deeper and closer to the heart.
You don’t need to prove yourself to God, He loves you. The Holy Spirit cries out on our behalf “Abba, Father”, leading us time and again to that one place, one declaration, one grounding and life changing point.
Thank you God!

Galatians - Week SIX: Clothed And Covered
Sunday Nov 03, 2019
Sunday Nov 03, 2019
Speaker: Jon Thompson
Scripture: Galatians 3:10-29
Description:
Welcome to Week Six in our series out of the book of Galatians. This letter was written to a group of churches that were being tempted to give in to a false gospel and to walk away from the true gospel.
The law shows all of us our sin and need and moves us to a Saviour. You will not be made right by any form of religion, spirituality, mindfulness, kindness, wealth, power, gender, race or family background.
The gospel is never about performance, only Promise!
Jesus is the promised one!
