Tusculum Church of Christ

Before the Throne

Both Ephesians and Colossians present a breathtaking vision of Christ exalted above every power and authority. This lesson explores the cosmic reign of Jesus and what it means to live under His rule.

Divine Understanding

Paul prays not merely for information, but for hearts enlightened by the wisdom and knowledge of God. This lesson explores the difference between knowing about God and truly seeing life through the light of Christ.

Heavenly Hope

Paul opens Ephesians and Colossians by reminding believers that their hope is rooted not in circumstances, but in God’s eternal purposes in Christ. This lesson explores redemption, inheritance, and the confidence that comes from belonging to God’s kingdom.

Agape

In this final sermon of the "Shape of God’s Love" series, Barrett Stark explores Agape, the sacrificial and initiating love that defines the heart of the Gospel. Following previous studies on Hesed (steadfast love) and Phileo (brotherly love), this message emphasizes that true love is a way of life that chooses to move toward others regardless of the cost. Using the cross as the ultimate example, Barrett challenges the congregation to move beyond feelings and live out a love that stays, shows up, and sacrifices. The video concludes with a heartfelt parting gift and a prayer of blessing from the elders as Barrett prepares for his upcoming graduation.

Phileo

In this message, Barrett explores phileo love—the kind of love that builds real, meaningful relationships. He reminds us that love isn’t just found in big moments, but in showing up, staying present, and choosing connection over comfort. This sermon challenges us to stop waiting on others and take the first step toward deeper, more intentional relationships.
