Galatians 3:19-4:31 || Session 5 - Heirs of the Gospel, Children of Promise

(Message Notes available on my website)
Heirs of the Gospel - Children of Promise....this phrase is packed with meaning, hinting at our identity as heirs to God's promises. We explore why the law was given (hint: it’s not to save us) and how it points out our need for a Savior. We learn that faith in Christ transforms us from being bound by the law to becoming full-fledged heirs. Paul brilliantly explains that in Christ, there’s no Jew or Greek, slave or free, male or female. We’re all one, wearing Christ as our identity.
See the beauty of adoption as sons (yes, sons—because it signifies being an heir). This isn’t about exclusion but elevation, showing how everyone is brought to the highest privilege in God’s family. Are we living as true heirs, embracing grace over legalism, and inviting others into this incredible promise? So grab your Bible, open your heart, and let’s embrace the freedom and intimacy we have as children of promise. You won’t want to miss this enlightening study that ties it all together with God’s amazing grace!
🙌 I meet with women like you for pastoral care. If you need a safe and encouraging place to share your heart, be prayed for, and pointed to the life-giving truth in God's Word, please reach out. My contact information is here: https://www.jennifergrichmond.com/contact/ The Dwelling Richly podcast and Bible study is for women who love God with heart, soul, mind, and strength.
We are women who enthusiastically and intentionally dwell in the Word and let the Word of Christ dwell in us richly.

Dwelling in the Word and letting the Word dwell in us richly is different than reading the Bible or reading a devotional with Bible passages. Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly and return the favor by dwelling in the Word - not "doing" Bible study, not simply reading - but moving into the Word with heart, soul, mind, and strength.

In Step with the Gospel

Message Notes available at https://www.jennifergrichmond.com/teaching/
Every relationship and even our self-talk should be filtered through the lens of the gospel. Because, let's be real, life throws a lot at us, and staying grounded in the gospel is key. I even share a personal story about a recent challenge with my husband that taught me the importance of forgiveness and letting go of bitterness. Spoiler: It all comes back to the gospel!
Join me as we unpack the importance of keeping in step with the gospel, just like Paul did when he called out Peter for his public misstep. We'll also touch on the five solas of scripture and how they can help us stay focused on the truth. So grab a cozy spot, maybe a cup of coffee, and let's grow together in understanding the radical transformation the gospel brings. 🙌

Galatians 1:1-2:6 || The Gospel Reverses You

The gospel is not just about tweaking a few behaviors but completely transforming us from the inside out? We're diving deep into the book of Galatians and exploring how the gospel is designed to reverse us, not the other way around.
We often think we can figure things out on our own, right? Whether it's trying to do better politically, culturally, or spiritually, each generation believes it can finally get it right. But history tells us a different story. As we unpack the message of Galatians, we'll see how each attempt to create systems promising freedom often ends up leading to more control and bondage. And guess what? It's the same with our spiritual lives.
Join me as we explore Paul's powerful words and his own transformation by the gospel. His life, once dedicated to persecuting the church, became a testament to God's grace and power, glorifying God through his radical change. Let's challenge ourselves to not rationalize our positions but to truly embrace the gospel's call to become new creations in Christ.
So, grab your Bible, maybe a cup of coffee, and let's dive into the transformative power of the gospel. Are you ready to let the gospel reverse you? 🌿

Galatians || Session 2: Why We Need the Gospel

Galatians: Free & Filled is a verse-by-verse Bible study through one of the most fired up - maybe the most! - epistle of Paul's! He comes in to right the "ship" to bring the churches in Galatia back on course with the truth. They needed this strong correction then and we need it today!
In Galatians we will be called to check for any legalism and live to uncover the pure, unfiltered gospel of grace. We'll laugh, we'll learn, and we might just get a little fiery as we explore Paul's passionate plea to the early church.
In this episode, we tackle the sufficiency of the gospel, the dangers of adding to God's word, and the incredible freedom we have in Christ. Whether you're new to the faith or a seasoned believer, this study promises to challenge and inspire you to live freely and fully in God's grace.

Psalm 119:25-32 || Ep. 2 ABCs of Grace - DALET ד

Devotional, Study Notes, and Transcript available  https://www.jennifergrichmond.com/teaching/dave-garrett-abcs-of-grace-ep-2
Psalm 119:25-32 || Ep. 2 ABCs of Grace - DALET ד
Focus:
 We're continuing a special series where I share my dad's teachings from Psalm 119, recorded way back in 1981. In this episode, my dad, Pastor Dave, guides us through verses 25-32, focusing on finding hope and strength in times of depression. He called this section "Orienting to Depression," emphasizing the Hebrew letter Dalet that begins each verse. His insights are timeless and so relevant, especially if you're struggling or supporting someone who is.
Reminder:
These recordings are from old cassettes, so expect a little static and garble. But trust me, it's worth it. Grab your Bible, follow along, and don't forget to check out the study guides and transcripts on my blog, for a clearer understanding.
Key Points:
Memorize Psalm 119:25-32 to internalize God's promises.
Reflect on areas of your life where you feel defeated and ask God to revive you according to His Word.
Share this message with someone struggling with depression or loneliness.
Study the verses mentioned in the podcast to deepen your understanding.
Engage in daily meditation on God’s Word to combat negative thoughts.

Growing Deeper...
Daily Scripture Reading Plan: Create a plan to read a portion of Psalm 119 each day, focusing on one stanza (eight verses) at a time. As you read, reflect on the meaning of the Hebrew letters and how they relate to your life. Write down your thoughts and any specific ways you feel God is speaking to you.
Journaling with Expectation: Begin a journal where you write down your prayers and expectations as you study the Bible. Reflect on how God has acted in your life in the past and how you expect Him to work in the future. Periodically review your entries to see how God has answered and guided you through His Word.
Memorization and Meditation: Choose a verse from Psalm 119 that resonates with you and commit it to memory. Throughout the day, meditate on that verse, considering how it applies to your current situation and how you can live it out. Use it as a reminder to keep your eyes fixed on God’s promises.
Group Bible Study: Gather a small group of friends or family members and go through Psalm 119 together, one stanza at a time. Discuss the meaning of each passage, how it challenges or encourages you, and how you can apply it to your lives. Encourage one another to dwell richly in God’s Word throughout the week.
Personal Prayer Time: Set aside dedicated time each day to pray through the principles learned in this podcast. Focus on confessing your sins, asking God for understanding, and approaching Him with boldness and expectation. Use Psalm 119:121-128 as a guide for your prayers, asking God to help you see and understand His will.

John 13:1-21 || From the Table to the Cross: Love That Knows No End

In this message based on John 13:1-21, we reflect on the moment when Jesus, knowing His hour had come, chose to show His disciples the ultimate example of love and humility by washing their feet. This sermon highlights the significance of Jesus' actions, the meaning of true servant leadership, and our call to serve others with the same sacrificial love. As we go through this passage, we're reminded that God's timing is perfect, and His love for us is limitless. Join us as we consider what it means to love 'to the uttermost' and how we can follow Jesus' example in our own lives.
