Last Sunday, we only made it part of the way through our verses. So this Sunday, we will finish looking at Paul’s instructions to the church about suffering for the gospel.  As Paul concludes his opening remarks, he directly addresses the elephant in the room: he is writing this letter from jail. How can a man encourage a church to remain hopeful in Christ while he is enduring suffering for Christ...

At this time each year, many of us turn our attention to making resolutions for the new year. We make promises about food, money, time, and family. But how many of us stop to think about our spiritual state as we are accessing our lives? Is it even beneficial to make spiritual resolutions once a year? Shouldn’t we be resolved to live for Christ each and every day? In today’s sermon, we will examin...

A resumed study of the book of Colossians examining the end of Paul's lengthy introduction.

We continue our Christmas sermon series, Not So Silent Night. Last week, we looked at the proclamation of Elizabeth when she saw the pregnant Mary for the first time.

We begin our Christmas sermon series, Not So Silent Night. The joy of the first Christmas was so intense that many of the people directly involved broke out into prophetic songs when they encountered the reality of what was happening in those events. Luke recorded many of these firsthand accounts in his gospel. In our opening message in the series, we will lay a foundation for the opening chapters...

We’ll look at one of the most beautiful passages in all of Scripture, Habakkuk 3:17-19. As we look at this passage, we’ll focus on the challenge and joy of giving thanks even in life’s hardest moments.

 We examine our annual vision of prayer by looking at family prayer. We have already talked much this year about personal prayer and corporate prayer. However, because we understand that the family is the most fundamental relational group in history, it should not shock us that praying with our family, especially our spouse and children, is another critical aspect of a growing spiritual life. Sund...

For many people, partaking in the Lord’s Supper is one of the high points of their worship experience. Yet, as often as we observe this element, do we really understand why we do it?

Baptism is something so important to us that we named our denomination after it. We have all seen more baptisms than we can count. But how much do we really understand about baptism? Why do we do it? Why do we do it the way we do it? Why don’t we do it the way other denominations do it? The answers to all of these questions are found in scripture for those who are willing to take some time to stud...

When we feel overwhelmed by life, when the world seems too full of natural disasters, political upheaval, and individual evil, where can Christians turn for hope? Luckily, the people in the small church plant in Colosea were feeling some of the same way.

What are the indicators of a faithful church? How should someone pray for a faithful church?

Don’t miss this first week as we lay the groundwork that the entire series will be built upon as we examine the history and purpose of this book.
