Paul wants the Colossians to know that their lives are intrinsically linked to Jesus. What happened to him happens to us. It changes how we see everything.
In a culture of competing worldviews & religious ideas, we’re reminded to keep Jesus at the centre of our lives.
Paul prays for us to bear fruit as the Spirit does his work in us. What does fruitfulness look like where you live and work?
What does it mean to be a community built on faith, hope and love? We explore these three principles which became the foundation of the early church.
The last and, perhaps most important, question posed to Jesus was this: “What is the greatest commandment?” Jesus’ response was clear and simple…
The Sadducees didn’t believe in resurrection but they asked Jesus about it to trip him up. It gave him a chance to explore what life after death means.
The tax question was designed to see which side Jesus was on; the Romans, or the Jews. But he sidesteps the question, because he’s building a new kingdom. How does this help us in our workplaces?
Who do you think you are? The question that always disturbs those who feel they have the most to lose.
This is more than a bad day, Jesus is stopping business as usual to offer the chance of something new. That was the threatening thing. It still is.
