Freedom in Christ: A Deep Dive into Galatians 1:1–10

Welcome to the start of our new sermon series, "Freedom in Christ." In this episode of Sermon Conversations, the teaching pastors of CityRise Church begin a line-by-line journey through the book of Galatians.

Focusing on the first ten verses of chapter one, Pastors Roger, Pastor Robby, Alberto, and Justo discuss the unique intensity of Paul’s letter to the Galatian churches. Unlike his other letters, Paul skips the usual commendations to address a critical crisis: the desertion of the true Gospel.

The pastors explore Paul’s divine authority, the significance of Christ’s rescue from "this present evil age," and the stern warning against any "different gospel" that adds human works to God's grace. The conversation concludes with a powerful look at verse 10—challenging us to consider whether we are living for the approval of people or for the service of Christ.
