Colossians 3:25

Have you felt cut back recently?  Pruned?  Pieces of you taken away? These audio-guided meditations will help you understand why God often seems to prune us back even in the cold winter days of our life.  And remember that His pruning will soon result in you bearing more fruit, and even richer and finer fruit, soon and for His glory.

Do you want to live a more generous life? The answer is stewardship. It affects everything you are and everything you want to be. It involves your possessions, time, spiritual gifts, body, and leadership. As you learn to better steward everything God entrusts to you, you will begin to live a life of generosity!

The book of Colossians has a lot to say about how the gospel should shape our chosen vocation. Over the next four days, we will look at a few key passages in this beloved book, unpacking how Paul’s words should impact the work we do each day.

While imprisoned in Rome, Paul warns believers to remain vigilant against false teaching by beautifully expounding on the cosmic Person of Christ. Jesus is “the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything He might be preeminent” (Colossians 1:18). In response to Christ’s preeminence, Paul commands his readers to “seek the things that are above where Christ is…and not on the things that are on earth” (Colossians 3:1-2).
