Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Sep 24, 2021

Christ At The Center

Contributed by Patty Groot on Jul 31, 2025

In a world full of shifting values and unstable truths, we need an anchor. Colossians 1 gives us one: Jesus Christ is not just part of the story; He is the Author of the story. This early confession of faith shows us the truth about Jesus.

Sixteenth Sunday in Course 2025 Let’s begin with a question that I believe every follower of Christ should ask, early or late in our discipleship: Am I proud to be a Christian?
