Welcome to 15 Minutes in the Word with New York Times best-selling author Joyce Meyer.

On today's program, Joyce will be teaching from her Bible study on the book of Galatians.

We all desire God's love and to be right with Him.

While we may try to earn that love or achieve perfection, the truth is there's nothing we can do to achieve it.

But there is one answer God has given us, His grace.

God wants us to experience his freedom in every area of life.

And on today's program, Joyce will show us through the Book of Galatians how we can exchange

our trying for trusting and rely on His grace to become everything he has created us to be.

and you actually maybe take some notes and write down what you learned from it.

Galatians is mainly about that we're not to live under the law

anymore, but we are now living in the dispensation of grace that we're not only saved by faith,

but we're to live by faith.

but living by faith requires decisions all day long.

Whether I'm going to do this in faith or I'm going to do it in fear,

or I'm going to do it leaning on God, or I'm going to do it in faith or I'm going to do it in fear, or I'm going to do it leaning on God,
