Palmer St. Podcast: Galatians 2:1-10

When Christ comes into our lives and begins to change us, one of the desires He places within us is the desire to be used by God in the lives of others. This is a natural part of our growth. We get satisfaction when we see that the Lord has made us his instrument to meet someone else’s need, to help them through a time of trouble or be a part of their spiritual growth. So here is a question: How does God prepare us to be used? A quick look at the life of Paul will give us some answers to that query.

Palmer St. Podcast: Galatians 1:11-24

Paul was transformed by meeting Jesus.  He went from persecutor of the church to the most ardent spokesman for Christ and explainer of Christian doctrine.  This is something like the big bad wolf not just being stopped from blowing down houses, but actually becoming the fourth little pig – and then becoming the world’s foremost scholar and chief defender of piggishness.  The Gospel of Jesus Christ is real; it must produce real changes in the lives of those who believe it.

Palmer St. Podcast: Galatians 1:1-10

The Apostle Paul is seriously upset. Churches in the Roman province of Galatia that he had worked very hard and even risked his life to plant were now falling for a false gospel – one that required them to keep Jewish customs and rituals. He is writing to them to set the record straight. They need to stick to the truth of the gospel and not let anything, not even these seemingly biblical elements, cause them to depart from it, add to it, or modify it in any way.

Palmer St. Podcast: 2 Corinthians 13

In this chapter Paul challenges the Corinthian church, saying, “Examine yourselves.”  We’re going to try to do the same, examine ourselves, noting that real Christianity involves both right Christian beliefs and real Christian experience marked by authenticity, maturity and unity with other believers in Jesus.
