Jacob's Well Church

Colossians is an invitation to live In Christ. It is a warning to those who would want to add to Christ, move on from Christ or be tempted to lose hope in the Gospel which is the mystery of Christ in you. To live in Christ is to Give him preeminence in all things. To be defined by Christ who becomes our life. Those in Christ continue in the faith!

Colossians is an invitation to live in Christ. It is a warning to those who would want to add to Christ or move on from Christ. Or those who are tempted to lose hope in the Gospel, which is the mystery of Christ in us. To live in Christ is to give Him preeminence in all things. To be defined by Christ, who becomes our life. Push the Gospel into every corner of your life.

To be in Christ means we also have full access to all the privileges associated with being part of His new Kingdom. In this message we will dive into those privileges and see how we can be enhancing our day-to-day lives with them. As we learn to live in the light and embrace our freedom in Christ we can also become a light of hope to others, showing them that the Gospel really does work!

God defines who we are, what matters and how we should live and love. Walk worthy.

What are we known for? How big is the contrast between Christianity today and the early Church?

For what are you known? How about the church? How about the first believers? Those in Christ are known by the fruit of faith, hope and love.

SEASON 2 of The School of Unlearning Podcast! As we look to a new series in Colossians, we ask what it looks like to follow Jesus as Christ and Lord.

Colossians is an Invitation– to Live In Christ. It is a warning to those who would want to add to, or move on from Christ, or be tempted to lose hope in the Gospel– which is the mystery of Christ In You. To Live In Christ is to give him preeminence in all things– to be defined by Christ who Becomes Our Life. Find your Tribe.

Special Guest Brian Faught joins us to talk through the plethora of options available for each of us to grow in our spiritual formation.

Having a regular Sabbath practice in your life will not only rejuvenate you for the work week or school week ahead– it will also help you begin to truly know and become more like Christ. This is practice for what heaven will be like! Discover the keys to making a regular Sabbath practice a reality for you and your family!

We just celebrated 47 baptisms, 47 stories of lives changed by the Gospel. This week we reflect on the power of this ancient practice and how it helps to refocus our hearts on Christ.

The weather made us move Splash indoors, but we were still SO excited to celebrate with everyone who was baptized! It was such a great service.

What should your Sabbath practice look like? There are hundreds of options, and this week Paul and Shua share what Sabbath looks like in their lives.

Jesus renews Sabbath as a life-giving gift from God. Sabbath is the practice, perspective, and pattern of resting in God that teaches us to live in true freedom. Find the Sabbath practice and pattern that works for you and your family.

How do we adopt an attitude of rest when our lives are so very busy? This week we talk through three perspectives on Sabbath that help bring us to an answer.

Sabbath is the practice, perspective, and pattern of resting in God that teaches us to live in true freedom. Jesus renews Sabbath as a life-giving gift from God.

What does it look like to truly rest in God? What is it about Sabbath that leads to life? Pastor Paul and Shua are back after some time off this summer, with a new episode talking about Sabbath, as we kicked off the Sabbath Rebel series last Sunday.

Sabbath is the practice and perspective of resting in God. It is grounded in a deep trust that God’s work is more important than ours. It is the establishment of rhythms of work, rest and play in our lives that creates well-being in mind, body, and Spirit.  It creates a platform for healthy relationships.  It is the place where spiritual habits that are life-giving and renewing are learned and int...

What do you do when you are in the flames, when life punches you in the face, when trials and difficult times come– How do you react? How does your faith hold strong or does it melt down? It is relatively easy to counterfeit our faith, but in the flames of trials our true faith is revealed, and it is far less how we act and much more how we react that reveals how strong or weak our faith is. What...

When we learn to control our words by listening to the cues and motions of our body, it helps us show our authentic faith.

Our faith should produce works, but it's not that simple. We can't DO for God, unless we first learn to BE with God.

So often we place value on people, wealth, work, status, and material items– but it's really God– He is our true treasure. It's never too late to start a relationship with Jesus, nor is it too late to hit the reset button on your relationship with Him. He is waiting for you with love and forgiveness.

Our country is great gift and a trust. As Christians we should participate in the political process in a way that honors Christ. We should support ideas and policies that are consistent with the Kingdom of God. We should also have the wisdom and grace to accept that other sincere believers have differing priorities and opinions. Above all, we should remember that our true citizenship is in the Kin...

Action is the heartbeat of authentic faith in Jesus.
