Surrounded by enemies, David remembers past deliverance and prays with confidence for a salvation he knows he doesn&#039;t deserve. Strong consolation in times when evil presses in from all sides.

Psalm 3: Our Shield and Glory

God&#039;s answer to rebellious kings, once He stops laughing, is the installation of Christ as King, along with great promises of that King&#039;s victory.

Psalm 2 - The Promised Victory of Christ

We are in a critical season, a dry season, a potentially deadly season. The command is not to survive, but to advance, take new ground, and bear new fruit.

Psalm 1: Surviving the Critical Season

From John 10 and Zechariah 11, on the roll of New Testament shepherds in light of the ministry of the one Good Shepherd, who is the Door of the sheep fold.

Shepherds, Hirelings, and Wolves

The Apostle ties everything together in a neat bow here, as we end the series with the last verses of chapter 6. A prominent ethical/judicial note is in the text that hasn&#039;t been explored before and has immediate relevance to our situation: That is, when people tell you who they are, it&#039;s not unloving to believe them.

Galatians #10: Paul's Summing Up

What comfort can people draw from the law of sowing and reaping as they head into dark times, when negative sanctions are threatened?

Galatians #9: The Law of Sowing and Reaping, Related to the Big Stick of Vampire Medicine

Galatians 6:1-9 It may be a surprise to you if you haven&#039;t been listening long, but the New Testament never connects Elders with church discipline, and that is demonstrated again in this passage, as Paul urges that restoration from sin be handled by Spirit-filled individuals, not title-holders or men in offices.

Galatians #8: Elders/Deacons Absent from Church Discipline

Finishing up Galatians 5, we encounter the familiar, iconic Fruit of the Spirit, but our focus is returning this (maybe too familiar) passage to its original context, the flow of Paul&#039;s argument, and what has been an extended discussion commending life in the Spirit over the attempt to finish in the flesh.

Galatians #7: Flesh and Spirit compared

Galatians 5:13-14, the importance of freedom, service, love of neighbor; and their relationship to the current pressure to love your neighbor by getting the shots.

Galatians #6: Neighbor Love and the Vakz Question

We take Paul&#039;s amazing use of Isaiah 54:1 in Galatians 4, back to the source and see some of the amazing ramifications of understanding that older passage in light of the apostolic interpretation. This is a great, and under-appreciated, comfort to the people of Jesus.

As Sure as that Other Thing (Isaiah 54:1-10)

First half of Galatians 4, exploring the metaphor of Slave Vs. Son.

Galatians #5

Arguments 4-6 from Galatians 3 on why Christians should not seek to become more Jewish.

Galatians #4

Arguments 1-3 from Galatians 3 for why Christians should not seek to become more Jewish.

Galatians #3
