Do you remember the annoying kid in your grade school that went on and on endlessly extolling his or her virtues? Or maybe you were that kid? Adults need just as much validation, but are typically more discreet. Paul talks quite a bit about boasting in this concluding chapter of Galatians.

Yet for the follower of Jesus, the cross-centered life turns everything upside down.
