In the Summer of 2017, I did a six-week Bible on Paul’s Epistle to the Galatians. The course was primarily Powerpoint-based, though I’m working on turning this into more user-friendly outlines and handouts. Accompanying this Bible Study was an additional class I did on how one can study and engage Scripture on their own, without the need of commentaries, sermons, or lectures. Below, you’ll find the embedded Powerpoint presentations for both general Bible Study and the more scholarly Galatians one. I’ve also added additional resources beneath that.
