At the beginning of Galatians, Paul sets out his testimony as evidence of the truth of the gospel of Jesus and it's the same with us as disciples. The gospel of Jesus is true and our testimony of life is part of that evidence which illustrates that it's true. As Jesus says in Matthew Chapter 7 :16 "By their fruit you will recognise them."
So as we think about the message of Galatians in this Playmakers podcast, we're talking to real people and thinking about how the gospel of Jesus has transformed, underpinned and built the lives of men and women of God, men, and women in our community. How do they live in freedom and guard that freedom in Christ?
These are not the testimonies of people who are far away, but people who sit next to us at CCBS on Sundays and in small groups, real people who show that Jesus is Lord in their daily lives.
In Episode 6 Matt & Nigel talk to Hannah & Ben and ask the question how do we remember the poor? Hannah used to live and work in Uganda and set up a charity there while living and serving in the country, whilst Ben currently works for the Red Cross and has been involved in the humanitarian sector for the last 20 years. They talk about different types of poverty and give advice on what we can do to help and remember the poor.

Episode 2 - How do we get back up when life tackles us really hard?
We can often get tackled and hit hard by the events and circumstances life throws at us. Sometimes we are able to shrug off those tackles and keep running our race. However, other times it can leave us on your knees really struggling to get back up.
In this episode of 'Playmakers' we talk to Jane & Yvette, two amazing woman who have ridden tackle after tackle during their lives, whilst continuing to carry the ball of Grace.

Episode 1 - What is the best offensive play when the sins of the flesh try to tackle you?
In this episode of 'Playmakers' Matt & Nigel talk to Christine & Mark about how we, as believers of the gospel of Jesus Christ, go on the offensive. Using the game of American football as a metaphor for life we ask the question what is the best form of attack we have in our playbook when the sins of the flesh try to tackle us? We talk about eating, we talk about alcohol. We even talk a little bit about pornography in this episode. We hope you enjoy this first episode of a six part mini-series exploring the concept of grace within the New Testament book of Galatians
