Hear how the promise of the Messiah still brings hope today.

Thinking About Serving Gifts
Where would we be without all the people willing to use their gift far from the spotlight?
Matt continues surveying the gifts listed in Scripture by thinking through the 'quiet' gifts, and how they contribute to the glory of God.
Thinking About Speaking Gifts
"Some people just seem to have the gift of the gab!"
Speaking type gifts can be used powerfully by God in the church, but they don't come without a warning label.
Join us this week as Matt picks along the treacherous path of public gifts in the church.

Galatians: Gospel Character
Key Text: Galatians 5:16-26
"Living the way of the Spirit is what we most deeply 'want', yet the sinful nature continues to generate alternative and competing desires which we experience and can give in to, but which now contradict our most abiding love and goals. The reborn person has both sinful desires and godly desires, but 'we' must truly want what our Spirit-renewed heart wants." — Tim Keller
We all know it's true. As followers of Christ, we face a battle every day and this battle is, more often than not, within.

Galatians: Living in Line with the Gospel
Key Text: Galatians 2:11-21
