343. The Reality Check | Colossians

Colossians | The Reality Check What does it really mean to live like you've been made new in Christ? In this message from Colossians 3, we explore Paul's call to receive our new identity in Christ, redirect what we pursue, and renew the way we think. Rather than focusing on behavior modification or trying harder to earn God's approval, this passage reminds us that lasting transformation begins with understanding who we already are because of the gospel. This message offers biblical encouragement to live from the victory Christ has already won. --- We are working together to be like Jesus & to help others become like Him. Jesus's mission was focused on RELATIONSHIPS. We believe Church is a team sport, and the objective is making disciples of Jesus relationally (Matthew 18:18 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZwdml7Wocg&t=1098s]-20, Matthew 4:19 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZwdml7Wocg&t=259s]) New to TC? https://togetherokc.church/about/ [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa1R6Zy1nem5yX2RTQ2JvdTRVSndZUzd6TUtvQXxBQ3Jtc0tudkRPQl9USnIwQmh2TEJxczlDcGpFRGotbUw0ekFoSjhCNUFRUjlJVUtURFc2ZjQ5SjZXRnZCaWREVnJxQ3RnemxsYzMyZy1FdzNjQWF4eHFPc01YdklxNThiRnh5UnBXaUFGOUFNWWhFZnJwajk4SQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Ftogetherokc.church%2Fabout%2F&v=yZwdml7Wocg] Want to give? https://togetherokc.church/give/ [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbDkwcFVLdzJvUE5aSWJIb3lmRzFZY1FNamNDUXxBQ3Jtc0treWdJVXRySTdPNE9TVUpJeGI1Y2NxWFhISHhGckJWNWZMdGVXOWNlQW8tTDAwZEZMSGdnWmhxcTR1cW03YWZMOFpzT0Y5cndRZzI0V3JtaGFMUkxUSFE4QWJWVUlkWkJxNVhRMU1BTGlqanREb0lfOA&q=https%3A%2F%2Ftogetherokc.church%2Fgive%2F&v=yZwdml7Wocg] Right Now Announcements?  https://togetherokc.church/rightnow/ [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa2h1UEtmN2k0NmxDT1VzRUJ4UnNVS1Qxd3RNUXxBQ3Jtc0tuYXRKMTdQZTdaQlpwNGpNUl9XZkRpdXVxeG9NVEd6WVlYbVJXOEduVVUtOGZNZEEyMmY1RHh1T29sTHMtaXZCTEU3ZjZubjdTMXJDWkl6QjIxRksySDAwSXJqUFFucGc5LUVlWXREYXhLTnRNLTRsbw&q=https%3A%2F%2Ftogetherokc.church%2Frightnow%2F&v=yZwdml7Wocg] Are you a leader interested in free resources? https://togetherokc.church/leader-res...

342. Rooted & Built Up in Christ | Colossians

Colossians | Rooted & Built Up in Christ Some of the greatest dangers to our faith don't announce themselves as lies... they actually sound very reasonable. In fact, that's exactly what makes them so dangerous. If they weren't convincing, we wouldn't believe them! Paul calls these "plausible arguments" in Colossians 2. Join me in asking the Lord to sharpen our discernment and root us more deeply in Christ. --- We are working together to be like Jesus & to help others become like Him.

340. Maturity in Christ | Colossians

Colossians | Maturity in Christ Who is Christ and how does He work through His people? Was He simply the most impactful teacher and moralist to ever exist? Or Someone more than that? And what do I mean when I say, "how does He work through his people?" We will be answering these questions, as well as the question of what Christ has done by looking at Colossians 1:19-29. Here's a bit of a spoiler: God has given us work to do and also the power to do it. --- We are working together to be like Jesus & to help others become like Him.

339. The Supremacy & Sufficiency of Jesus | Colossians

Colossians | The Supremacy & Sufficiency of Jesus Life has a way of testing and revealing what we truly believe. When our expectations go unmet, when suffering comes, when relationships get difficult, or when the future feels uncertain, our faith is often revealed. In those moments, we don't need a bigger view of our problems... we need a bigger view of Jesus. Today, we'll be in Colossians 1:15-23, one of the most Christ-exalting passages in all of Scripture. Together, we'll see why the supremacy and sufficiency of Jesus are not just important theological truths, but the firm foundation we need to endure every circumstance of life. --- We are working together to be like Jesus & to help others become like Him.
