The boldness of Paul

Reading through Galatians, right now. Paul's boldness amazes me. I can't say how many times I've read through Galatians 2 and yet the more I develop as a leader the more I appreciate his willingness to call a spade a spade. Despite Peter's boldness in the Spirit post-Pentecost, he obviously continued to struggle some with the 'people-pleaser' side of him. Paul stepped up to let him know that his actions contradicted his theology.

How many times do my actions contradict my theology? More often than I think... I'm sure. Like Peter... I know what is right but it's easier to do what is accepted.
