Living in Liberty

There is a battle that rages within each one of us. Our lower nature cries out for instant gratification to please SELF. This self-centered life results in many problems--physical, psychological, and relational. We fight back by trying to follow rules and regulations. But the Spirit knows the solution: freedom from our lower nature and freedom from the law. Listen to today's message from the Scotch Ridge pulpit to learn how to live in the liberty of Christ.
