Hey guys, welcome back. We are in Galatians 5 today, and we're right in the heart of a topic

that we're calling liberty or freedom. It is so exciting to know what we have in Christ,

the power that is ours because of salvation. Listen in today. Welcome to Everyday Truth with Kurt Skelly. We believe the Bible is
