Galatians 2:1-10
Intro/Attention
Tonight, we continue our series through the NT book of Galatians. It's a series we've entitled Justified.

When Hemingway began living his sinful, rebellious life, his mother refused to allow him in her presence. One year for his birthday, she mailed him a cake along with the gun his father had used to kill himself. Another year, she wrote him a letter explaining that a mother's life is like a bank.
