📖 Today’s Message with Pastor Hunter Norwick
Colossians 3:12–18 | Hebrews 3:13
Today’s message reminded us what a life that truly belongs to Christ should look like.
“Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.”
Colossians 3:12
🍇 We Bear Fruit to the Glory of God
When Christ is truly at work in our hearts, our lives begin to produce fruit — compassion, kindness, humility, patience, forgiveness, and love.
These are not just good habits.
They are evidence of a heart that has been changed by Jesus.
“And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.”
Colossians 3:14
🏠 Our First Ministry Is Our Family
Pastor Hunter reminded us that our faith must first show up in our homes.
We have a duty to minister to our families to love them, forgive them, guide them, and lead them closer to Christ.
❤️ Encourage One Another Daily
Scripture also calls us to strengthen one another in faith.
“But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called Today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness.”
Hebrews 3:13
When believers love and encourage one another the way Christ does, it protects our hearts and keeps us walking in truth.
As Scripture teaches us elsewhere:
Love covers a multitude of sins.
🙏 Stay Close to the Lord
In order to serve well…in our homes, our church, and our community…we must stay close to Jesus.
“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly…”
Colossians 3:16
When His Word fills our hearts, it shapes our lives.
✝️ Everything We Do Points to Him
“And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus.”
Colossians 3:17
May our lives bear fruit that glorifies God, strengthen one another in love, and reflect Christ in our homes and communities.
