Glorious New Lives
May 27, 2018Pastor:Jeff Schultz

Sermon Notes

In his prayer, Paul paints a picture of the glory of Christ reflected in people who have been brought from darkness to light. We see how the life of Jesus is lived out in his people; not that our lives can be ‘worthy’ of the Lord, but that we walk in a way that is suitable to our new lives – which makes sense given who we now are! Join us as we look at Glorious New Lives from Colossians 1:9-14.

The Hope of Glory
June 10, 2018Pastor:Joey Woestman

Sermon Notes

As the Apostle Paul concludes his introduction of himself to the believers in the church at Colossae, he reflects on the riches of the gospel, Christ in us, the hope of glory. This message has become Paul’s mission, and the church’s responsibility to grow in maturity. Join us for “The Hope of Glory,” as we consider the mystery, the mission, and our maturity from Colossians 1:24–2:5.

Glorious Freedom
June 24, 2018Pastor:Joey Woestman

Sermon Notes

At first glance, it appears that in Colossians 2 the Apostle Paul is encouraging a young church to make sure they worship God the right way, not the wrong way. But is that really his point? Or is Paul referring to something much deeper in our relationship with God, something fundamental to how we are made right with God in the first place? Join us for Glorious Freedom from Colossians 2:16–23!

Glorious Homes
July 8, 2018Pastor:Bob Blahnik

Sermon Notes

Colossians 3:1-17 switches from Paul’s theological teaching to practical ways for us to live out our faith as Christ-Ones. Last week, we looked at the architecture, excavations, and foundations needed to build our lives upon Christ. In Colossians 3:18–4:1, we will learn how to practically build our marriages and homes in ways that honor and glorify the Lord we serve.
