     | 3,770 views

    When preaching through Galatians, many pastors either just mention this section or skip over it altogether. Why? Because it is a hard section to preach! It’s theologically deep and I’ve had to work hard to be able to explain in a way that we can all understand.

    The Bible is filled with the stories of flesh and blood people … frail human beings with ordinary human needs who face all of the same kinds of struggles and challenges that we face … which is why we can not only relate to Paul’s discouragement but can learn from his courage as well.

    I want to start out by reading an anonymous poem called “Friendship”: Friendship is a priceless gift that cannot be bought or sold But its value is far greater than a mountain of gold For gold is cold and lifeless It can neither see nor hear And in times of trouble it is powerless to cheer It has ...read more
