Paul addresses three distinct groups of Christians in Galatians who are all a part of the early church together, but come from vastly different backgrounds. What do we do with this tension in our own lives of differing perspectives on faith and spirituality? Paul reminds us once again to re-center our lives on Jesus, remember who Jesus says we are, and make our spiritual example to others in how we live our daily lives.

In Galatians, Paul addresses spiritual adulthood. What does it mean to be an adult spiritually? We have freedom in faith, but with freedom comes responsibility. That doesn’t mean we live under religious rules. If we do that, we will miss what spiritual adulthood is all about by relying on the law.

Occasionally, we might need to recenter our lives on the truth of the gospel. That the gospel (good news) is enough to center your life upon. If you want to recalibrate your life - center your life on Jesus. Trust that He is in you, with you, and for you. Rest in the knowledge that who you are is not dependent upon your reputation with others or your dependence on other people’s opinions of you - you’re in the best place you could possibly be - your life is secure in Him.

What is it to live as a follower of Christ? In Galatians, Paul sees how the early Christians will be living out their faith. How we understand the gospel is significant. The gospel isn’t just about how you get saved - it’s about how you live.

On this day we celebrated our ministry theme Better Together and all that it has meant for us to live this out in the community. We had the opportunity to hear from a multi-generational panel of individuals who have experienced Better Together in different, but meaningful ways. We celebrated all that God has done in us and through us and we carry that meaning forward as an essential part of our unity and purpose.

Currently, younger generations are more digitally connected than ever before, but surveys indicate they are feeling more disconnected. How do we, as a multi-generational church, work together to overcome that challenge? Not one generation needs to prove itself to have a place with us. It takes sacrifice and compromise to reach multi-generational common ground, but we have so much to gain from that pursuit. We don’t love others so that they love us back. We love everyone and what them to belong because that’s the example that Jesus set for us.

Every generation has a different view on life with unique cares and concerns. Each generation is also doing the best they can with what they’ve experienced during their formative years. If we all remember that in the end, we all desire peace - we will be stronger, more unified, and have a greater understanding of each other.

It’s undeniable that generational differences exist, but it doesn’t have to remain a hindrance. Being a multi-generational church is one of our strengths. Every generation brings something valuable to the table. How do we recognize each other’s strengths and values without feeling as if we lost something along the way? The early church faced similar challenges and also presents us with a solution when faced with different viewpoints.

Religion only ends up weighing us down. When we lay down the burdens that we’re carrying around that weigh heavy on us - we will realize Jesus was with us all along. He’s finished things for us already. We don’t have to make our way to God because He makes his way to us through Jesus.

Jesus didn’t arrive in Jerusalem to be the great conqueror that the Jewish people had long hoped for, but he did arrive to change where people placed their hope. The temple was the center of Jewish life and Jesus arrived to change the focus from a place empty of true relationship to Himself. Religion can only take you so far. A relationship grows with you and only strengthens you spiritually.
