Your Restoration Restores Others
What does it mean to live a life that loves well?
In Galatians 6, Paul teaches faith is revealed in how we restore people gently, carry burdens, and keep doing good. “Bear one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ” (Galatians 6:2, NRSVue).
Sister Bettye Henderson Holston showed us what that love looks like. For ninety years, her faith produced fruit through education, courage, mentoring, service, and care for generations of children. As one of the first Black teachers to integrate Clarke County’s teaching staff, she opened doors while helping people discover possibilities. At Greater Bethel, she served through Christian education, missions, and ministry.
Her witness reminds us that loving well is more than kind words. It means using our gifts, bearing burdens, restoring others, and refusing to grow weary in doing good. A faithful life keeps planting seeds whose harvest may bless people we never meet.
Join us tonight, Tuesday, October 13, at 7:00 PM ET for our special final session of the Galatians Bible Study, “Your Restoration Restores Others.” Find the Zoom link and study guide at gbaathens.org. Come discover how people restored by Christ can help restore others.
The book of Galatians is a passionate letter explaining what it really looks like to be a follower of Jesus Christ and how our freedom in him is certain. It's a letter that many of us urgently need to hear.
In this Bible Study, Jada Edwards teaches the importance of knowing that you are wholly and fully accepted in Christ, by Christ, and through Christ. From your birth, God has called and chosen you—and now:
·Because of God's authority, we don't need to seek the acceptance of man.
Because of God's approval, we aren't insecure or intimidated.
Because of God's freedom, we don't need to self-sabotage in order to cope.
Because of God's restoration, we can bring healing and restoration to others.
As Jada walks you through Galatians, you'll see how the Apostle Paul delivers his very passionate and urgent assurance, helping you understand that once you place faith in Jesus, you are transformed. You are made new. You are forever part of the family of God. You are fully accepted, and you are free.
