What do you do with a “thorn in the flesh” God won’t take away? In Episode 450 of The Bible in a Year, Pastor Kevin Cain and Rev. Dr. David Spence finish 2 Corinthians with one of the most comforting promises in Scripture, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness,” then work through the entire Book of Galatians, Paul’s bold letter on grace, faith and freedom in Christ.

Paul never names his thorn in the flesh, and Rev. Dr. Spence suggests that’s on purpose: every one of us carries something. Pastor Kevin shares honestly about his own, and why prayer is a process, not a vending machine. Then the conversation moves into Galatians, where Paul confronts the Judaizers who insisted Gentile believers be circumcised, defends the gospel he received straight from Jesus Christ, and even calls out Peter to his face at Antioch. Along the way you’ll hear what it means to be “crucified with Christ,” why Abraham was justified by faith, how Paul uses Hagar and Sarah to explain law and promise, and why the fruit of the Spirit is one fruit, not many.
