Breaking Free

Our new study is “Breaking Free” by Beth Moore.  In this study we will be walking through the book of Isaiah, a book about captivity of God’s children the faithfulness of God, and the road to freedom.  Beth tells us that “A Christian is held captive by anything that hinders the abundant and effective Spirit-filled Life God has planned for her.”

Beth encourages us to memorize Galatians 5:1 and say it until the truth is engraved upon our soul~

“1 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.”

Why is this verse so important?  Paul’s letter to the Galatians has been called by many “The Magna Carta” of Christian liberty.  Galatians shouts to believers “you’re free!, “you’re free! Free from bondage of law, free from the tyranny of trying to earn God’s favor.  You have been set free by grace through faith in Christ Jesus.  I am so glad that we are embarking on this journey together.
