Living Out Our Acceptance in Christ
I have a question for you: What would change if Jesus directed your life?
In her 2017 Academy Award acceptance speech, Viola Davis reflected on the graveyard as a gathering place for unrealized potential: people who dreamed big but never saw those dreams fulfilled.
Her words invite us to consider our lives. What are we postponing? What fear, habit, or response to rejection is keeping us from living faithfully?
Paul offers a foundation in Galatians 2:20:
“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.”
Jesus does not simply improve our lives. He calls us to surrender them to him.
You are invited to join session two of Greater Bethel’s Galatians Bible Study, Thursday, September 17, at 7:00 PM.
Together, we’ll explore how acceptance in Christ changes our relationships, choices, and purpose.

Bring your Bible. Invite someone. Don’t let fear write your final chapter. Let Christ direct your life, and start living your calling today!
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.
