We are children of the free woman...

[Gal 4:19-31 NLT] 19 Oh, my dear children! I feel as if I'm going through labor pains for you again, and they will continue until Christ is fully developed in your lives. 20 I wish I were with you right now so I could change my tone. But at this distance I don't know how else to help you. 21 Tell me, you who want to live under the law, do you know what the law actually says? 22 The Scriptures say that Abraham had two sons, one from his slave wife and one from his freeborn wife. 23 The son of the slave wife was born in a human attempt to bring about the fulfillment of God's promise. But the son of the freeborn wife was born as God's own fulfillment of his promise. 24 These two women serve as an illustration of God's two covenants. The first woman, Hagar, represents Mount Sinai where people received the law that enslaved them. 25 And now Jerusalem is just like Mount Sinai in Arabia, because she and her children live in slavery to the law. 26 But the other woman, Sarah, represents the heavenly Jerusalem. She is the free woman, and she is our mother. 27 As Isaiah said, "Rejoice, O childless woman, you who have never given birth! Break into a joyful shout, you who have never been in labor! For the desolate woman now has more children than the woman who lives with her husband!" 28 And you, dear brothers and sisters, are children of the promise, just like Isaac. 29 But you are now being persecuted by those who want you to keep the law, just as Ishmael, the child born by human effort, persecuted Isaac, the child born by the power of the Spirit. 30 But what do the Scriptures say about that? "Get rid of the slave and her son, for the son of the slave woman will not share the inheritance with the free woman's son." 31 So, dear brothers and sisters, we are not children of the slave woman; we are children of the free woman.

Join Us! Through The Bible In A Year Wth Bible Discovery TV

Happy New Year everyone! 
Hope you are all blessed with a meaningful, Truth filled year! 
We want  to share the daily video teachings from a wonderful family that we first "met" through television about 19 years ago. Every year the Hembree family takes the viewer through the Bible in a year. 365 teachings as we read along with them. It has been sometime since we joined in. But prior to then, we had joined them for about ten years in a row!

Their passion for sharing God's Word in a deep and meaningful way comes through clearly. So if you want to dig in deeper or are reading the Bible for the first time, we suggest connecting with "Bible Discovery TV." You can order a daily side that is printed and mailed to anyone with a donation of any amount. We love Janice and her family! Thank you guys for all you do and for teaching His Word.

We are looking forward to following along this year.
