Sermons About 1.21
Jesus Sends
This week, our church continued it’s study of Colossians with Colossians 4.2-18, in which Paul shows us the recipe for a missional lifestyle. If Jesus is God, the Creator and Redeemer of humanity (and he is), then it follows that people need to know about him. Many of us would like to live lives of mission for him, but aren’t sure how. But in this passage, our question is answered.

Identity
This week we continued our series: “Jesus versus Religion,” where we’ve been looking at the Book of Colossians, and seeing Jesus’ superiority over all things, including religion. The sermon this week came from Colossians 2.6-15, and explored our identity crises. The fact is, so often we don’t know who we are. We go around, wearing different masks to fit into different situations until we forget who we are underneath it all. As a result, our lives are fragmented and unstable. We don’t really feel like we belong anywhere because we don’t even know who we are. But in this passage, the Apostle Paul offers us a solution to this dillema: the stability and identity that we’re seeking are found in Jesus Christ and his gospel.
