This week, we have entered into the book of Galatians. Paul most likely has addressed this letter to be circulated among churches in the region of Galatia, a province in the Roman Empire. The main theme of the book is the truth of the Gospel and its implications for life. Don’t you love the way The Message puts it, “you crazy Galatians”? Paul is rebuking and correcting them. He is concerned that the people of these churches have lost sight of the main thing: Jesus and His work on the cross. Paul is concerned they have started to put other things in the place of primary importance. Unfortunately, this still happens today.

What types of things cause people to lose their trust in God today?

What types of things do you have a tendency to place as primary over God?
