Galatians Part 14: Gospel-Shaped Community

When shame takes over, most of us do the same thing Adam and Eve did—we hide. But in Galatians 6, Paul gives us a radically different vision for the people of God: a community where the fallen are restored, burdens are carried together, and gentleness—not judgment—marks every step.

In this message, Pastor James unpacks what it really means to restore someone who’s been overtaken by sin, why so many believers struggle alone, and how the cross of Jesus shapes the way we treat those who are hurting. If you’ve ever felt isolated, overwhelmed, or unsure how to help someone who’s struggling, this teaching will speak directly to your heart.

What you’ll learn:
• Why shame drives us into hiding—and why the gospel calls us out
• What “gentle restoration” looks like in real life
• How Jesus restores us and empowers us to restore others
• Why community is essential for healing and spiritual growth
• How to carry each other’s burdens without becoming prideful or harsh

Whether you’re fighting a private battle or walking with someone who is, this message will remind you of the hope, freedom, and restoration Jesus offers.
