  • 5Men: Study on SundaysGlenn Dukes will be kicking off a studyof Galatians at 10:45 a.m. (following the9:30 service) at William Cannon eachSunday from April 21st through June16th.Each week we will read a chapter of TimKellers Gospel Matters, targeted to ex-cite Christians about the gospel, andhelp them apply it to every aspect oftheir lives.

    Gospel Matters takes us to the heart of adispute of eternal significance. The Ga-latian church was torn between the view

    that their efforts saved them, andthe gospel, which told them thatit was Christ's work, not theirs,that mattered. The choice stillconfronts us today, making this

    a hugely relevantand exciting book

    to study.
