    When God Interrupts Everything — Galatians 1:11–24 | Season 1, Episode 2

    Have you ever been completely certain about something — and then had God interrupt everything you thought you knew? That's exactly what happened to Paul. In this episode of the Set Free Stay Free Bible study podcast, host Matt Dawson continues the Season 1 Galatians Bible study with chapter 1, verses 11–24. Paul pulls back the curtain on his own story — the education, the zeal, the reputation as a Pharisee of Pharisees — and shows how a direct revelation from Jesus Christ shattered his religious certainties and gave him something better: real freedom. Before God sends you anywhere, He reshapes who you are. Using the SOAP method (Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer), Matt walks through how Paul's testimony — not just his theology — became his most powerful argument. And the application hits close to home: your story of transformation might be more powerful than you think, even when your life still feels messy. This Galatians Bible study is for anyone who has ever felt unqualified to share their faith or wondered if God can really use someone with a past like theirs. In this episode: Why Paul's authority came from revelation, not reputationWho Paul was before Christ — and why it mattersHow God interrupts religious certainty with transformational truthWhy your testimony may be your most powerful witnessA closing prayer for the courage to walk in your story📖 Passage: Galatians 1:11–24 (New Living Translation) 🔍 Keywords: Galatians Bible study, Bible study podcast, SOAP method Bible study, Christian Bible study, Scripture-first Bible study, Set Free Stay Free, Matt Dawson, walking through the Bible, Christian discipleship podcast

    There Is No Other Gospel — Galatians 1:1–10 | Season 1, Episode 1

    What if you could be completely sincere and yet still be completely wrong? That's the tension Paul addresses right out of the gate in his letter to the Galatians — and it's just as relevant for the church today. In this first episode of Season 1, host Matt Dawson opens the Set Free Stay Free Bible study podcast with Galatians 1:1–10, where Paul skips his usual encouragement and goes straight to alarm. The Galatian churches weren't abandoning Christ — they were adding to Him. And Paul's response is stunning: there is no other gospel. Using the SOAP method (Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer), Matt walks through why spiritual freedom doesn't begin with passion or sincerity — it begins with truth. You'll also get an introduction to the Judaizers, the group quietly twisting the good news inside early Christian communities, and why their tactics aren't so different from what we see today. This Galatians Bible study is for anyone who wants to go deeper in God's Word and learn how to stay rooted in the simplicity of the gospel of Jesus Christ. In this episode: Why Paul opens with alarm instead of encouragementWho the Judaizers were and what they were teachingThe danger of adding to the gospel — then and nowHow social media mirrors the same threat Paul warned againstA closing prayer for discernment and rootedness in truth👉 Download the free SOAP guide here:  https://www.mattdawson.tv/read-your-bible-guide ✍🏼 Free Spiritual Gifts Assessment  https://www.mattdawson.tv/yourspiritualgifts BOOK - Gifted On Purpose For Purpose: https://amzn.to/4r1MdbY 📖 Passage: Galatians 1:1–10 (New Living Translation) 🔍 Keywords: Galatians Bible study, Bible study podcast, SOAP method Bible study, Christian Bible study, Scripture-first Bible study, Set Free Stay Free, Matt Dawson, walking through the Bible
