"In the beginning..." We typically think of the Creation account in Genesis 1:1 as the start of the human journey. But there is something before the 'beginning' - a starting point located in eternity past as described by the Apostle John in the opening statement of his Gospel: "In the beginning was the Word..." Pastor Michael opens our Genesis Journey with an overview of biblical history - a history defined not by Creation, but by the "one who upholds the universe by the Word of His Power" (Hebrews 1:3)

2 Timothy 3 begins with the warning that the days in which Timothy finds himself are "perilous times". And such 'Fierce Times' demand 'Firm Beliefs' and a 'Fighting Faith' that is focused on the eternal perspective of Jesus' return.

We're called to fan into flame the gift of God within us, by the power of the Holy Spirit deposited in us, to proclaim the message of salvation entrusted to us. This is how Paul - imprisoned and facing certain death - urges Timothy to run his race: effectively, wholeheartedly and faithfully.

We can’t know freedom in Christ in our hearts without the fruit of the Spirit being demonstrated in our lives. In this final message of our series in Galatians, Pastor Michael describes the reality that God can't be mocked, “whatever one sows, that will he also reap” (Gal. 6:7). You can’t live according to your selfish desires and then reap the fruit of the Spirit. So, Paul urges, us to walk, live and sow to the spirit - demonstrating fruitfulness, testing our faithfulness, and realizing the reality that we have been made a "new creation" in Christ.
