Unity In The Community

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on May 3, 2018

In keeping in line with your Theme, I believe the text references unity as it relates to the body of Christ. If we have no unity within the body of Christ – it is futile to attempt to bring Unity with the local community in which we live.

Freedom (Galatians)

Contributed by Laura Martin on Jun 30, 2020

A walk through the book of Galatians. Are you living free – and not as a slave to the law or to sin?
