n this episode of Wednesday in the Word, Stu Epperson and Dr. Sam Horn explore Galatians 4:1–7 and the transforming truth of spiritual adoption through Jesus Christ. Building on Paul's teaching in Galatians 3, they examine how Christ's coming in the fullness of time fulfilled God's promises, redeemed His people from bondage, and brought believers into the freedom and privileges of being children of God. Through the illustrations of heirs, guardians, and adoption in the ancient world, this discussion highlights three key themes: the illustration of humanity's former bondage, the consummation of God's redemptive plan through His Son, and the confirmation of believers' identity through the Holy Spirit, who enables us to cry, "Abba, Father." Listeners are encouraged to stand firm in their identity in Christ, rest in salvation by grace through faith, and resist the temptation to return to a performance-based approach to God. The episode also challenges Bible study leaders to teach Scripture faithfully, speak truth with boldness and grace, and help others understand the freedom and inheritance believers have in Christ.

What is the purpose of God's law, and why can't keeping the commandments save us? In this episode of Wednesday in the Word, Stu Epperson and Dr. Sam Horn explore Galatians 3:19–29 to uncover the law's God-given purpose as a mirror that exposes our sin, a guard that hems us in under its condemnation, and a guardian that points us to Jesus Christ. Discover how the law was never intended to provide salvation through human effort, but to reveal our need for a Savior and point us to God's provision through the perfect substitute, Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. Through Christ, we are justified by faith, brought into God's family, and made heirs according to the promise given to Abraham. The discussion also examines what it means to be baptized into Christ, how believers find their identity in Him, and how all who belong to Christ stand on equal footing as sons and daughters of God, regardless of ethnicity or social status.

n this episode of Wednesday in the Word, Stu Epperson and Dr. Sam Horn walk through Galatians 2:1–10 and examine Paul's defense of the true gospel. Paul travels to Jerusalem with Barnabas and Titus, not to receive authorization from the apostles, but to demonstrate that the gospel he received from Christ and preached to the Gentiles was the same gospel proclaimed by the apostles in Jerusalem. At the center of the discussion is Titus, an uncircumcised Gentile believer who becomes a test case for the gospel of grace. Paul refuses to yield to the Judaizers—even for a moment—because adding circumcision or obedience to the Mosaic Law as a requirement for salvation would undermine the freedom and purity of the gospel. The conversation explores Paul's independence as an apostle, the preservation of the gospel, the unity and fellowship of Jewish and Gentile believers, and the distinction between the Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants. The episode concludes with a powerful reminder from Galatians 2:10: genuine faith produces love and practical care for others. The gospel doesn't merely change what we believe—it changes how we live and how we love. Key themes: justification by faith, grace, the gospel, circumcision, Judaizers, Paul's apostleship, Christian unity, the Mosaic Law, and loving others. "Every word of God is pure. He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him." — Proverbs 30:5

What happens when the man who once persecuted the church becomes one of its greatest proclaimers? In this episode of Wednesday in the Word, Stu Epperson and Dr. Sam Horn explore Galatians 1:11–24 and Paul's powerful testimony of transformation. Paul makes clear that the gospel he preached was not a message created by man—it was revealed to him by Jesus Christ. Together, they examine Paul's dramatic conversion, his calling to preach to the Gentiles, and the incredible way God redeemed his past for His purposes. His story reminds us that no past is beyond God's grace and that Christ must first be revealed in us before He can be revealed through us.

The book of Galatians has been called the "Battle Cry of the Reformation" and the "Magna Carta of the New Testament." In this first episode of our study through Galatians, Stu Epperson welcomes Dr. Sam Horn for an introduction to this powerful six-chapter letter and a deep dive into Galatians 1:1–10. Paul wastes no time defending the purity of the gospel. He establishes his authority as an apostle, reminds us that the gospel is centered on the finished work of Jesus Christ, expresses astonishment at the Galatians' departure from the truth, and delivers a sobering warning against any gospel that adds to or distorts salvation by grace through faith. Dr. Horn walks through four key themes in the opening verses: Authority, Astonishment, Anathema, and Ambition. Together, they challenge believers and leaders to understand the gospel clearly, guard it faithfully, and live with one holy ambition—to please God and serve Christ rather than seek the approval of people. As we begin this journey through Galatians, we are reminded that the gospel is not ours to redefine. It is a sacred trust to embrace, defend, proclaim, and live
