​15 How to Pursue Holiness Without Living Under Law​

New podcast published on May 13, 2026

This episode closes the Start Strong series by asking a question many believers quietly carry: if we are no longer under the law, what keeps us from drifting back into sin? In Galatians 5:13–24, Paul’s message is both freeing and searching: true faith does not lead us to use freedom as an excuse for sin, but to become people who increasingly love what is good. 

In this week’s episode, we explore:

• Why Paul wrote to the Galatians and how he answers the claim that grace leads to moral collapse 
• What Paul means by “the flesh” and why self-reliance can never produce true holiness 
• How freedom from the law is not freedom to sin, but freedom to love and serve others 
• Why a changed life does not earn salvation, but does testify to the reality of saving faith 

By the end of this episode, listeners will better understand why the Christian life is not sustained by fear, technique, or external pressure, but by God’s Spirit at work within us. It is an encouraging reminder that holiness grows not from trying harder in our own strength, but from trusting the God who changes broken people from the inside out.
