The Slavery of Freedom: Part 1 | Fighting the World, the Flesh, and the Devil E3

Doesn't freedom mean that I can do what I want? Not according to Jesus. John Mark contrasts our modern culture's definition of freedom with how Jesus and the other biblical authors thought about freedom. He then breaks down Galatians 5 and shows us how the practices of Jesus help us to walk by the Spirit towards true fulfillment in God and not be mastered by the flesh. Key Scripture Passages: Ephesians 2v1-5; Galatians 5v1-26Resources for this practice:https://practicingthewayarchives.org/practices/fightingThe Gift of Being Yourself, David BennerWhy Liberalism Failed, Patrick Deneen
