The book of Galatians is a passionate letter explaining what it really looks like to be a follower of Jesus Christ and how our freedom in him is certain.
In this video Bible study guide (DVD/video streaming sold separately) Jada Edwards teaches the importance of knowing that you are wholly and fully accepted in Christ, by Christ, and through Christ. From your birth, God has called and chosen you—and
Because of God's authority, we don't need to seek the acceptance of man. Because of God's assignment, we no longer define our lives by culture or heritage. Because of God's approval, we aren't insecure or intimidated. Because of God's adoption, we are no longer slaves. Because of God's freedom, we don't need to self-sabotage in order to cope. Because of God's restoration, we can bring healing and restoration to others. As Jada walks you through Galatians, you'll see how the Apostle Paul delivers his very passionate and urgent assurance, helping you understand that once you place faith in Jesus, you are transformed. You are made new. You are forever part of the family of God. You are fully accepted, and you are free.

After hearing Jada Edwards speak at our women’s retreat this spring, our Bible study decided to delve into her Beautiful Word study of Galatians this summer.

My old ID has been crucified with Christ; it’s expired and no longer valid. My new ID simply reads “Anointed.” My new life is fueled by faith from the gas station of God’s Word and the Spirit’s power! God‘s grace doesn’t reside in the rearview or peripheral mirrors. I am no longer bound by the world’s rules of the road. I follow the divine driver’s manual for eternal living--the Bible (with coloring pages for the road trip)!
I pray that God would make my life a vehicle fueled by faith and a conduit of grace to everyone I encounter along my way. May they ride while I abide! Amen!
