Yes or No will do - Audio

How do you know when the gospel has truly taken root? There are many ways you might try and answer but Paul thanks God as the fruit faith, love, and hope surface visibly in the life of the Colossians. How might they look in your life, today?

The letter to the Colossians speaks to a community tempted by many paths to spiritual fulfilment—moral effort, knowledge, or spiritual experience. None of these are the source of fullness. Only One is our holy of glory: Christ!

Happy new year! A new year brings new and heavy burdens on us. Yet, the great heart of God in Christ is gentle and lowly, inviting us to come to Him with everything that burdens us and He will give us rest.

There are many ways of life, but there is only one way that actually leads to life. The way that leads to life is through a narrow gate and a hard, lonely road, but its the way Jesus calls all who will follow Him.

Is there any point turning to God in prayer when others seem to get by without doing so? Jesus instructs His disciples to humbly ask, seek God's counsel and go to Him in prayer knowing "Your heavenly Father knows how to give good gifts to those who ask Him"

These verses in the Sermon on the Mount are among the most powerful yet most resented of all moral teachings. Jesus’ message of non-retaliation and active love toward enemies seems unrealistic and impossible in our hate-filled world. But this way of Jesus is how the kingdom of heaven breaks into the world’s cycle of evil and overcomes it for good, and is itself the very character of God.

Why call on anyone to attest to your word and not keep it? Jesus gives a clear and direct warning: to leave off making pretentions oaths and the needless unfulfilled obligations they create and to adopt the freedom that comes with simple rigid honesty.

Imagine having to consider the topic of adultery, divorce & hell all in one sitting? The sermon on the mount is aiming to get under our skin in more ways than one.

Who has never been angry? In our text Jesus puts his finger on a certain form of anger that can become detrimental to our worship of God.

There are two groups of people. People who want to get rid of God’s law, and people who think they can keep the law better than Jesus. Jesus addresses these two groups to tell them that He came to fulfil the law so that we can live in the true goodness that His kingdom demands and offers.
