CHURCH ON THE RISE

06/21/2026

The world will never stop offering you add-ons to Jesus. More rules. Better rituals. Deeper spiritual experiences. Ancient pholosophies repackaged for modern people. Paul saw it happening in Colossae and called it out directly. This week we look at what it means to already be complete in Christ - and why the greatest threat to an all in faith is the lie that something is still missing.

For generations it was hidden. Now it's out. The secret at the center of the gospel isn't a system or a set of rules — it's a person. Christ in you. The hope of glory. This week we recover the wonder of what it means that the God of the universe has chosen to take up residence in ordinary human lives — and what that changes about how you live yours.

Before you can go all in with Jesus you have to know who Jesus actually is. Not the version culture has watered down. Not the version religion has made manageable. The real one. The image of the invisible God. The firstborn over all creation. The one in whom all things hold together. This week we sit with one a powerful description of Jesus in scripture and let it change how we see everything else.

The gospel is alive. It's bearing fruit everywhere it goes - in cities, in small towns, in ordinary churches filled with ordinary people who said yes. Paul opens his letter to the Colossians by celebrating exactly that. This week we discover that your faith puts you right in the middle of a story that is far bigger than you think.
