Colossians
Roots and Fruits
by Rev. Greg Powell (Feb 28 2010)
Series: Colossians
In the opening verses of Colossians, Paul lays the groundwork for the rest of the book to this church at Colosse. This groundwork serves as a reminder of the foundation that we all need for Christian living and to keep Christ the center of our lives. But good foundations are not the end purpose; God wants us to be grounded so we can be grafted in and growing to produce fruit as a thriving child of God.
Praying for Your Children
by Rev. Greg Powell (Mar 7 2010)
Series: Colossians
Are we really praying for our children enough? Are we taking the most precious gifts God has ever given us and begging God to do something great with their lives? All parents have hopes and dreams for their children when they grow up; we have a picture of how we want our kids to turn out. Is this going to happen automatically, magically, apart from the hand of God? This sermon from Colossians gives parents a 7-day pattern to pray something specifically for their children's spiritual growth.
Giving Him First Place
by Rev. Greg Powell (Apr 11 2010)
Series: Colossians
In this passage, Paul now turns to discuss his purpose for writing to the church at Colosse. They were belieiving heresy which resulted in them dethroning Jesus from their church and life. They failed to make Him preeminent in all things. What principles did Paul seek to convey to them and how can these truths apply to us today who seek to make much of Jesus and give Him first place.
