Galatians | Life & Freedom In Christ
Shared on: Jun 16, 2025
This Independence Day weekend, celebrate our God-given freedom here on earth as well as our eternal freedom in Christ. Prepare your sermon and produce your service with this collection of curated sermons and coordinating media. This powerful letter to the Galatians is about understanding why Jesus had to die; how his sacrificial and substitutionary death sets us free from both the irreligion of immorality and the false religion of seeking salvation through our own meritorious efforts. Forgiveness of sin and eternal life are only found in Jesus and received through faith. Christ alone has lived the perfect life, and only those who receive his life will stand justified before God. Use this collection of resources to show your community the immeasurable grace of God found in Jesus. Two sermons pertaining to each chapter of the book have been selected in an effort to provide variety as well as a comprehensive view.
