Galatians
Live out the gospel in community (Geoff Snook)
Paul’s final challenge is to live out the gospel in community—to carry each other’s burdens, invest in what lasts, and keep our eyes on the cross. The seeds we plant today will shape the church of tomorrow. What kind of church are we building with our lives Galatians 6:1-18 Connect with us anytime at https://www.thelakes.church
Walking in freedom (Laura Snook)
Galatians 5:1-26 Freedom in Christ is not a license to sin—it’s an invitation to live by the Spirit. Paul contrasts the works of the flesh with the fruit of the Spirit, showing us what it means to walk in step with God. How do we let the Spirit shape our daily lives and our church?

Kids aren’t slaves (Geoff Snook)
A church built on grace is a family, not a religious system. Paul contrasts slavery and sonship, urging the Galatians to live in the freedom Christ has given them. Do we relate to God as sons and daughters, or do we still act like slaves trying to earn his favour? Galatians 4 Connect with us anytime at https://www.thelakes.church
Faith that frees (Ben Pearson)
Paul takes the Galatians back to Abraham to show that faith—not law—has always been the way to God. The law had a purpose, but now that Christ has come, we are set free to live as children of promise. Are we still holding onto things that Christ has already fulfilled?
Grace over performance (Phil Sproul)
Even the early church struggled with adding rules to the gospel. Paul confronts Peter for backing away from grace, reminding us that we are justified by faith, not by what we do. If the church is built on grace, why do we so often drift toward performance-based faith?
No other Gospel (Kate Cathcart)
From the very start, Paul makes it clear: there is only one true gospel, and anything else is a dangerous distortion. The church Jesus is building must stand firm on his grace, not on human effort or religious traditions. In a world filled with competing voices, how do we recognise and hold fast to the real gospel?
