Colossians 2:4-5 // Spiritually Healthy Christians Need Jesus Too

The Church at Colossae was spiritually healthy. They were doing well. But that didn’t stop the apostle Paul from writing to them about Jesus. Because everybody needs Jesus – both the spiritually sick, and the spiritually healthy.

Colossians 2:1-3 // Courage & Unity Unlock the Treasure

Every Christian today has Christ living in them – an incalculable treasure of understanding, knowledge, and wisdom. But not every Christian accesses that treasure within them on a regular basis. In this message we will learn that courageous and unified hearts are the key to opening those riches in Christ. 

Colossians 1:24-29 // Spiritual Maturity is the Goal

Your Heavenly Father is a good dad. And just like any other parent would, God wants His kids to grow up into maturity.

Colossians 1:21-23 // Every Christian's Life in 3 Verses

Although the specific details of each Christian's life will vary from one person to another, the main components of every Christian's life are the same: We all started out alienated from God, Jesus saved us, and then we go on to build the rest of our life upon Him. This is what Paul shares with the Christians at Colossae in the three verses we are looking at in this message.

Colossians 1:15-20 // The Only One Worth Following

There are many voices in our world today vying for your allegiance. There are many who are trying to get you to follow them, trust them, align your life with them. But there is only one person worth following. His name is Jesus. In this message we see Paul elevate the person of Christ over and above all other competitors. Jesus is simply the best. There is no competition. And this statement is objectively true.

Colossians 1:9-14 // Living a Life that Pleases God

God has a plan for your life. He wants you to live your life a certain way. And if you give yourself to living how God wants you to live, then you will be blessed. And He will be pleased.

Colossians 1:3-8 // Gospel Dominos

When the gospel was first proclaimed in Colossae it triggered a series of events that culminated with Paul and Timothy giving thanks to God for all that He had done. The things Paul talks about in these verses should mark any group of people who have received the gospel for themselves.

Colossians 1:1-2 // You've Got Mail

Why should the Christian community at Colossae have cared about the letter that was sent to them from Paul? Why should you care about that same letter if you are a Christian? Paul gives us a compelling reason in the opening two verses of that letter.
