S15 Ep11: Stay Close to God

Jennie continues the deep dive into Galatians and how Paul is trying to change the beliefs of new Christians about how to follow God. Paul argues that it's not through following the law but by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. You’ll see the power of the Holy Spirit is essential in living out the Christian faith and that it's not about striving or relying solely on human knowledge and effort. Instead, it's about being close to God and allowing Him to work through believers. The episode encourages a faith-centered, grace-driven approach to living out one's Christian walk.
