Sermons on Colossians
Colossians 3:1-11 Paul underlines that for a Christian, believing in Christ means everything has changed. Our past, our present, our future – it has all changed, because we are united to Christ in his death, his resurrection, and his coming again in glory. Paul then puts that into practice by explaining what Christians must do in response to this transformation, to live out this renewed, Christ-filled life.
Colossians 2:16-23 If we have ever wondered that we are missing something to grow in Christ, this passage provides confidence to not listen to, or imitate, those who falsely claim to be able to add to Christ.
Colossians 2:6-15 Scammers are the bane of modern life, stealing our valuables by all manner of lies and deception. In our walk with Christ, we have to be alert.

Colossians 1:24 – 2:5 Paul is letting the church know how hard he has been working for them, in order that they may know the mystery of God, Jesus Christ.

Colossians 1:3-14 Lots of people have life goals. Without goals we will just wander through life without direction. But what are God’s goals for your life? And how do yours compare with them? That is what is revealed in Paul’s prayers.
The Average person will spend a third of their adult life at work, in the Wharf it is likely to be more, as Christians there can sometimes be a disconnect between what happens on a Sunday morning at church and the rest of the week – Why does our work matter to God? Why does God matter to our work?
