Freedom – Our Story, His Story Galatians 1:12-24

“We pursue being a disciple making family: surrendered to Jesus, transformed by the gospel, and saturated in His word.”

The way we live our lives says a lot about us. The choices we make and the life directions we choose all speak loudly about our beliefs and motivations. The Apostle Paul defended his message to the false teachers in Galatia. He was transparent to the audience in Galatia. He proved himself to be willing to risk everything for the gospel and carry the message of grace and freedom. Paul spends time sharing his story to show God’s story and the power of what the gospel can do.

If you are a human and are seeing this field, please leave it blank.

Name

1. Paul was completely changed by the encounter he had with Jesus. What must it have been like for him to go from being such a violent opposer of the things of Jesus to spreading the message of the gospel? What did he lose? What did he gain? (Acts 8 and Acts 9).

2. How has the gospel of Jesus changed your life? How is the gospel of Jesus changing your life?

3. Paul’s life was so completely changed by grace that he could say that “it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me” (Gal. 2:20). What does your life say about you? Do your decisions and choices stay in line with God’s direction for your life? Can you say that in your marriage, your relationships, your work, your recreation, your money, etc.?

4. What would be different about this week if you allowed Christ to live through you, direct you, and guide you in your thoughts and actions?

5. Paul was called by God to specifically take the message of the gospel to the Gentiles. Is there anyone specific God is calling you to? Is there something specific God is leading you to do?

6. Paul shows us in this text the power of the testimony. We see Paul sharing his life before Christ, how he came to Christ, and what Christ was currently doing in his life. Practice sharing your story. Share your testimony in 3 to 5 minutes. Who will you commit to share with this week? Pray and share with the group who you feel led to share with. Ask them to hold you accountable and ask them to pray for you as you share.
