More Grief, More Strife

“I’m preaching today…oops.” Galatians 6! Here we are, we’ve arrived – The final chapter of Galatians. Paul again stresses the importance of Grace, and asks us to help restore each other, but to do it gently. To hold each other accountable, but to do it gently. To be kind, but honest. With love and Grace, because as Jay puts it, Grace is vital to getting us through Hell and back. We have to remember that we are accepted, all of us – even the “theys” in our lives. We are accepted as a community, and we have to learn to live as a community with Grace. Because all of us fall short. We aren’t too important to restore someone or to show them Grace. In this talk, Jay also reminds us of the dangers of legalism, because legalism tries to take over the job of Grace. In this letter, Paul talks a lot about legalism of the law when it came to circumcision, which was causing a big divide in the community – and divided communities are something we are dealing with today. Are politics our circumcision? How can Grace help us navigate this? Let’s be gentle with each other and see how it feels.


This talk was given on March 20, 2022 in Seattle, Washington.
