Galatians

Boasting in the Cross

Boasting in the Cross

Pastor Nate brings the message, "Boasting in the Cross” from Galatians 6:11-18.  As Paul concludes his letter to the Galatians, the one testimonial he leaves is his readiness to boast in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ.  That begs the question: “What are Christians and local churches known for?”  As a church family, LBC must be known as a group of people who “gather and scatter” with a message that boasts only in the cross of Christ.

Sow to the Spirit

Sow to the Spirit

Pastor Nate brings the message, "Sow to the Spirit.” In Galatians 6:6-10, Paul completes his theology of Spirit-led relationships with a picture of sowing and reaping.  Our role within the context of relationships can be compared to the planting of seeds.  Each seed being a selfless act of love under the authority of the Spirit or a self-seeking act carried out in the flesh.  The passage urges us to answer, "Are we living by the Spirit or the flesh?" 

Keep in Step with the Spirit

Keep in Step with the Spirit

Pastor Nate brings the message, "Keep In Step with the Spirit" from Galatians 5. What does a church family look like that is "keeping in step with the Spirit"?  A church that is governed by the Spirit will treat others, especially those who have fallen into sin, with a certain kind of care and gentleness.  A Spirit-led congregation is also made up of individuals who are worshiping the Lord through their own personal obedience to Him.
