Keeping in Step: Walking in the Spirit

Freedom Groups

Galatians 5 says to walk by the Spirit, and the walking happens in small decisions: the commute, the inbox, the dinner table. This course makes the flesh-versus-Spirit choice concrete in daily situations and teaches you to look for the way of escape God provides in temptation (1 Corinthians 10:13).

What You'll Work Through

Each unit is a conversation, not a page to read. The tutor asks you to explain, apply, and work with the material until it holds.
