Now in Chapter 6 we move to being an active part in focusing others on God—the source of life. What’s the use of having ...read more

    Called to Love Galatians 5:13-14 “For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as ...read more
