This week, Kevin Mondau will walk us through Galatians 5, where a heated debate unfolds over a hot-button issue in the early church. The confusion for new Christians in Galatia continues as the pressure mounts to take on Jewish rituals and customs. What does it look like for them to express their newfound faith in Jesus? The battle for their religious freedom is coming to a head. Of course, it’s not just the Galatians—this passage will help us identify what really matters to God when it comes to expressing our own faith.

This week we are excited to have Jon Graciano with us who will be continuing our series, Making Sense of Faith. We all experience ups and downs in life, but do we need to put up with setbacks in our faith? Paul is very concerned for theGalatians. It was a lot of work to get them set free, and now they seem to be tempted by new and different forms of bondage. As we look to make sense of the way faith in Jesus impacts our daily life, Paul’s words for the Galatians painta picture of what it would look like if we never went backwards in our faith.

In many ways, Paul’s letter to the Galatians has been full of heady theological arguments to this point. This week, Paul begins laying out how these theological attributes of God apply to our lives in more personal and relational ways. Not to be misunderstood as a distant or absent deity, this week we’ll see how God’s sovereignty brings comfort and confidence in seasons of waiting, how His redemption bringsfreedom, and how His adoption brings intimacy in relationship.

As we continue our series, Making Sense of Faith, we come to the question of, “What is the purpose of the law?” What was the purpose of the law for the people Paul is writing to, and what is the purpose of the law for us today? For those who lean toward legalism and for those who love to live free from the law, this section of Paul’s letter both grounds us and sets us free.

As we continue our series, “Making Sense of Faith,” we find the apostle Paul making a brash argument against the “curse of the law.” While putting our faith in Jesus is the right and obvious answer for our salvation, we have to wonder - why is Paul having to argue and defend the Gospel in the first place? What implications does Paul’s argument to the church of Galatia have for us today? What role does the Law play now that Christ has died and risen? Join us as we unpack Galatians 3:1-14.

Sometimes the Gospel can feel abstract—something we affirm on Sunday but struggle to apply on Monday. But in Galatians 2:11–21, we see a surprising moment: a tense confrontation between Paul and Peter over a dinner table seating chart. At first, it looks like a personal conflict followed by some heavy theology, but Paul shows us these are deeply connected. Our understanding of the Gospel shapes how we treat others. As we continue our Making Sense of Faith series,this passage reminds us that faith isn’t just about eternity—it speaks into our everyday fears, insecurities, and relationships.

It’s often heartbreaking to see division among churches, ministries, and leaders. In our passage this week, Paul shows us what it looks like to pursue gospel unity. Unity does not mean uniformity, and we’ll see how Paul and others find common ground in the belief and practice of the gospel entrusted to them by God. If you’re exploring Jesus, this message will give you an important look at the essentials that unite followers of Jesus. If you are a follower of Jesus, this message will challenge you in how to pursue gospel unity with other followers of Jesus.

From a young age, we’re encouraged to be confident—confident in ourselves, confident in our accomplishments. But along life’s journey, that confidence can easily lead to pride when we succeed or insecurity when we don’t. In our passage this week, Paul shows us how the Gospel protects us from both pride and insecurity and produces humble confidence. It’s this humble confidence that helps us makesense of God’s work in our lives and compels us to join His mission of redemption.
