We continue our Exalted series through the book of Colossians, diving into <span class="wa-st-ref" data-ref="Colossians 3:1-11" tabindex="0">Colossians 3:1-11</span>. In this message, Pastor Yusuf unpacks what it truly means to grow and mature as God's children — without falling into the trap of behavior modification. Through the lens of Genesis and the story of redemption, we explore three questions Paul answers in our passage: what do we need to understand about our new identity in Christ, what's required to walk in that identity, and what's the fruit of walking in it? You'll discover that spiritual maturity isn't about habit stacking your holiness or performing for God's approval — it's about understanding that in Christ, you are not just saved from hell, but raised for heaven. And from that place of resurrection, we are invited into a divine partnership to co-cultivate our souls until the fruit of that formation is seen in the flourishing of our community.

Join us as we continue our series in Colossians, this week looking at the dangers of false spirituality (and how many of us are more susceptible than we'd like to think!). Paul, after encouraging us over and over again to choose Jesus, shows us part of the shadow side of not choosing Jesus. These false versions of spirituality look great... but they're nothing but shadows with no substance. How do we know if we're pursuing these counterfeits, and how can we have hearts than long for (and receive) the real thing? Join us as we study this text (and commission our 5th church!) together.

Join us as we talk about how Christ secures the church. For those who have put their faith in Christ, they live in the tension of two realities: the already-but-not-yet Kingdom of God. In that tension, it can be tempting to believe that because we still sin and make mistakes, something more is needed beyond Christ’s sacrifice. In this sermon, we’ll discuss what Paul teaches in <span class="wa-st-ref" data-ref="Colossians 2:6-15" tabindex="0">Colossians 2:6–15</span> about our complete security in Christ, the fullness of His finished work, and how believers can live with confidence, freedom, and unwavering faith in Him.

Join us as we continue in Colossians, this week focusing on how Christ is most predominantly displayed: through HIs servants. Rather than Jesus just aetherally being known, He has chosen to make Himself known through people. However, the methods that He chooses is something American Christians tend to miss. What can we learn about our suffering, our service, and our building up of Jesus' church? If we get and apply this message of Paul, it might change our entire outlook on life!

We continue in our series on Colossians, today looking at one of the denser sections of the entire New Testament, especially with regard to Christology. Who truly is the Person of Christ? And is He as lofty in our minds, or, more importantly for many of us, is He as lofty in our hearts and souls as the Scriptures make Him out to be? If not (which, He isn't!), how do we exalt Him more? Rather than preaching, we're doing some practice of exalting Christ.
