Starting Our Study of Galatians | Big Picture Overview | Episode 5

In this episode of The Bible Friends, Aria and Cassie zoom out to explore how to study an entire book of the Bible. After discussing how to study individual verses in the previous episode, they now walk through their personal process for approaching a full book study—starting with the book of Galatians.
Together, they explain why understanding background information, authorship, historical context, and key themes is essential for faithfully interpreting Scripture. Using a simple study worksheet and a few trusted resources, they share how they identify repeated words, major themes, and the overall message of a biblical book before diving deeper into verse-by-verse study.
Throughout the conversation, they discuss Paul’s letter to the Galatians, the challenge of legalism in the early church, and the powerful message of the gospel: that salvation comes by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone—not by works of the law.
This episode also highlights how Galatians points directly to the cross and reminds believers of the freedom found in Christ. If you’ve ever wondered how to begin studying a whole book of the Bible, this conversation will give you a practical starting point.
A printable Galatians overview worksheet and summary page mentioned in the episode is available in the show notes so you can follow along and try the process for yourself.
