Living Under Christ’s Order

Drawing from Colossians 3:18–4:1, this message explores how Christ reshapes authority, submission, and everyday relationships. Paul addresses wives, husbands, children, parents, workers, and masters—not to reinforce cultural power structures, but to show how the gospel transforms them. When love guides authority and humility guides submission, households and communities reflect Christ’s unity and character.

Clothed in Christ

Drawn from Colossians 3:12–17, this message explores what it means to be God’s chosen people—set apart, deeply loved, and called to reflect Christ together. As we put off the old self and “put on” compassion, forgiveness, unity, and thankfulness, we learn how the gospel reshapes our relationships and forms a community marked by grace and harmony.

United to Christ (Part 2)

What does it mean to live as a Christian? It is to live in tension between two parts of us, one dying and the other coming alive. We must put to death the old us and breathe life into the new. Paul is going to show us exactly how to do it, how to live like a true born again Christian.

False Teaching

Here Paul finally elaborates upon the dangers of the false teaching corrupting the church in Colossae. We witness an interesting mix of teachings, showing the danger found in both charismatic teachings and the legalism found in tradition. So let’s open it up together and discover what the ancient Colossian heresy has to teach us about errors in the church today.

Jesus is Enough

In Colossians 2:6–15 we’re reminded that everything we need is found in Christ alone. While human traditions, spiritual fads, and deceptive ideas pull us toward distractions, Paul calls us back to the centre: Jesus, the fullness of God in bodily form. In Him we are forgiven, made alive, and set free. When we stay rooted in Christ, we discover that He truly is enough for every part of life.

Suffering For The Church

What are we called to when we become a part of the church? Paul is going to show us what he must endure, and what in turn all ministers and all members of the church must endure, they must suffer through trial and tribulation for the benefit of others. We will explore together, how Paul calls us to take up our cross as Christ did for the sake of his body, the Church.

Our Reconciliation

What has happened to our relationship with God? The Bible tell us that we have been estranged, the Bible is the story of a marriage, a marriage made up of a faithful husband and a very unfaithful wife. We have broken the covenant, estranged ourselves from God, now we need to be reconciled. How is that possible? Paul will share that with us in Colossians 1:21-23.

Jesus is First in Everything

Paul continues in Colossians 1:15-20 with a hymn, detailing the most supreme and exalted truths of who Jesus is. All pointing to this most central truth, everything is about Jesus.
