A message from the series "Colossians." Colossians began with a prayer to be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding (1:9). Understanding His will leads us to what it means to be complete in Christ. While we are complete in Him, we can’t rest on our laurels. We need to keep seeking Him. That mindset matters.

A message from the series "Colossians." From the beginning, God was heavily invested in the human race. He loved His image in His creation. When sin entered the picture, that image was distorted. Thankfully, He would not give up on us. Jesus the Messiah, poured Himself out of heaven as the only One who could pay the price to ransom our souls and restore that image of God in us.Writing to the Colossians, Paul urged all who,by faith,receive this salvation, to be constantly “renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator”. God’s word repeatedly invites us to be renewed in His image.
A message from the series "Colossians." For those of us who are followers of Christ, the question is, how is the character of Christ being formed in us before a watching world? What are we, as His people doing to clothe ourselves with His likeness?
A message from the series "Colossians." What does it means to be “in Christ,” both personally and as a local Church? How does it capture or attention? How does it change us? What difference is it making in the way we see our circumstances and challenges?
A message from the series "Colossians." What is your starting point when it comes to Christ-honoring dynamics in the home and family unit? Do you start with written agreements, rules, or do you just go with the flow? It’s likely that our initial instruction in family life started with our families of origin, for better or for worse. How does your relationship with Christ affect your relationships within family? Our previous messages from Colossians 3:1-17 called for those who have “taken off our old self with its practices and have taken on the new self, renewed in the knowledge of our Creator...to live in perfect unity” (vs.9, 10, 14). It really comes down to this: Godly families reflect oneness in Christ.
