Alexandria Covenant Church
The Christian life is to be lived in the context of a biblical community, which is to be understood as our faith family. Spirit-filled believers are responsible for each other and to each other as we live together as the family of God.
--------------
Do you ever feel like you are shackled and chained to the never-ending pursuit of things that are supposed to be life-giving only to realize they are lifeless and leave you feeling empty in the end? Join us on a journey through the book of Galatians where you will meet Jesus and discover the life-giving reality of the true gospel.
The true gospel has the power to break the chains of sin and self-righteousness that lead to death and give life and freedom to those who live by faith in Jesus Christ. Not the kind of freedom that allows us to live however we want, but a freedom that helps us to live the way God wants. In Christ, we have been set free to live free!
Galatians 5:26 NLT
Galatians 6:1-10 NLT
Commit yourself to healthy family relationships (v.26)
Commit yourself to helping your brother and sister in need (v.1-6)
Commit yourself to sowing seeds worth harvesting (v.7-10)
Challenge: Pay attention to your family of faith! Look for opportunities to do good to those around you. Love selflessly, sacrificially, and with sensitivity to those in need. Do you know of a brother who needs to be restored to the faith, a sister who is carrying a burden she can’t bear, a young couple who could use a babysitter so they can have a date night, a child who could use your help mentoring them? Look for ways you can bless those in your faith family.
