Summary

In this week's Deep Dive, Brad, Terry, and Chris talk about Galatians 4:21-31. Chris describes this passage as "the most challenging passage he's ever had to preach." Why is that? In this passage, Paul references a story from Genesis 16-21 in which Abraham, the Father of the Jewish faith, has a child with his wife, Sarah's, servant. This passage contains polygamy, slavery, and difficult interpretive issues. What do we do with it today? How does it help us better understand Paul's argument in his Letter to the Galatian Churches? And, what does this section of Scripture tell us about the promises God has for us as Christians today? #DeepDiveCC #GalatiansCC
