A little bit of anti-Gospel mindset can saturate all our life. One small lie morphs into something bigger. When grass is saturated with water, it grows. God will defend the Gospel. Saturate yourself with the Gospel and grow.  Galatians 5:7-12 Pastor Steven Washburn Find out more about Jenison Bible Church at jenisonbible.org  . Join us on Sundays in Hudsonville, Michigan.

Remember when you first learned to drive? If you focused too much on the lines, it was harder to actually stay between the lines. When you focused on the destination ahead, it was much easier. It is similar in our Christian walk. Keeping our focus on our real destination helps us see clearly and live purposefully. Focus on Christ.  Galatians 5:1-6 Find out more about Jenison Bible Church at jeniso...

For freedom Christ has set you free. Stand firm therefore and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. Galatians 5:1  In Christ, we are freed from the bondage of sin and freed to live in the righteousness we were meant to live. Freedom is only freedom when we are rightly related to the One who know us perfectly. Find out more about Jenison Bible Church at jenisonbible.org  . Join us on Sundays in...

Two sons, two covenants, two destinies, and two ways to live. Those are the themes in today's passage in Galatians. Who are you trusting to come through for you? God? Or yourself? No matter your origin story, God sees you. He saw Sarah (barren) and he saw Hagar (despised). He loved both and had a plan for both.  Galatians 4:21-31 Steven Washburn, Lead Pastor Find out more about Jenison Bible...

Life doesn't go the way we thought it would - in marriage, parenting, retirement, ministry, and more. We often want to change the way God works. Maybe it is because of our own weaknesses. Perhaps the truth hurts too much. Our worship might subtly shift from God to people. Perhaps your sanctification process is long and arduous and you turn away when it gets hard. Change is possible. Galatians...

Too often we fall back on self-reliance, idols, and our old way of thinking rather than relying on God. Like the Israelites in Egypt, we believe slavery and idols are better for us somehow. In reality, they keep us trapped. Idols do not want a relationship with us. Jesus does. He made us. He loves us. Make your surety and security firmly set in Christ. Galatians 4:8-11 Steven Washburn, Lead Pastor...

God sent His Son to redeem those under the Law, that we might be adopted into sonship. We are no longer slaves, but children of God.  Galatians 4:1-7 Pastor Steven Washburn, Lead Pastor Find out more about Jenison Bible Church at jenisonbible.org  . Join us on Sundays in Hudsonville, Michigan.

It is only against the inky darkness of the night sky that stars appear. [John Stott] The Law is meant to show us the reality of our sinfulness. We see our freedom in the Gospel and God's grace better when we see sin, for what it really is, as revealed in the Law.  Galatians 3:23-29  Pastor Steven Washburn, Lead Pastor Find out more about Jenison Bible Church at jenisonbible.org  .

The Bible is actively at work showing us that sin is actually sin. God defines reality - we do not. The intent of the Law is to reflect truth and bring us to the grace and mercy of Christ who provides redemption. Galatians 3:19-22 Find out more about Jenison Bible Church at jenisonbible.org  .

 If you were invited to a sporting event or concert, with front row seats, and paid for by someone else, would you go? Certainly. Then why do we hesitate to sit at Jesus' feet. Being with Jesus is uncomfortable because He actually wants you to be free. Your honesty and ability to sit at Jesus' feet will not be taken from you.  Come with us through Luke 10:38-42  Find out more about Jenis...

Not many historians deny the life and death of Jesus. Pursue the evidence that Jesus not only lived and died, but He also rose again! That is what we celebrate on Easter.  What does Jesus' resurrection mean to us? It clears the way for our resurrection, our justification, our regeneration, our victory over sin and death, our new life and fruitfulness, and our ultimate glorification. The resur...

Let's sit together in the pain and unknowns of the crucifixion. There was confusion, uneasiness, and the fact that death was final. While we know what happens next, tonight we will focus on the sacrifice for the sins of the world that was laid on Jesus' shoulders on that first Good Friday.

We fail to keep the Law even before we try to keep the Law. We are hopeless outside of Jesus taking our penalty. He reverses the curse and fulfills the requirements of the Law perfectly.

Abraham believed and it was counted to him as righteousness. Understand that justification by faith is God's plan in the Old Testament and the New Testament. We all come to the foot of the cross by grace. Trust God's provision. Believe God's provision and not our own performance. We do not earn our way to God's acceptance. Come with us through Galatians 3:6-9 Find out more abou...

Genuine change = more Christlikeness. Our sanctification is about deeper trust in the Spirit's leading. It is cooperating with God to become more like Him. do we believe God's ideas for our lives are better than our own ideas? Come with us through Galatians 3:1-5 to see how real change happens.

Whose life is it? Ours? Or Christ's? Good questions. Are we reluctant to trust Him in everything because we do not really know Him well. Let's dig into it together in Galatians 2:17-21.  Find out more about Jenison Bible Church at jenisonbible.org  . Join us on Sundays in Hudsonville, Michigan.

One of the best anonyms to hypocrisy is integrity. Hypocrisy is not living up to what I say I believe, while integrity is when a belief is so integrated it cannot be divided from who I am. The gospel brings integration into our lives so that we are not as divided as we used to be.  Find out more about Jenison Bible Church at jenisonbible.org  .

Getting the things we thought we wanted, our previous pursuits, leads to hurt. Pursuing Him gives us everything we need and more than we can imagine. God set Paul apart to preach Good News.

A man-centered Gospel makes us the source and sustainer of ourselves. A God-centered Gospel makes Him our source and sustainer. We cannot sustain or attain anything in our own strength. Not for long, at least. God, and His infinite resources, are far better. The source of our Gospel matters. Will yours deliver?  Scripture: Galatians 1:10-24 Find out more about Jenison Bible Church at jenisonbible....

The Gospel is enough. Maybe we think we need to add to the Gospel because it has not transformed us yet. The Gospel has everything you need. Anything that diminishes the role of Jesus distorts the Gospel. Be alert. Transformation is a continual process.  Scripture: Galatians 1:6-9 Find out more about Jenison Bible Church at jenisonbible.org  . Join us on Sundays in Hudsonville, Michigan.
