The Christ In A Manger

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Mar 24, 2020

We have heard the story so often that it seems obvious that Christ was born in a manger. But that would have been shocking to the world of that day.

I always enjoy the chance to meet people from different cultures and learn how 2 people from 2 different cultures can look at the same event and see it differently.

Intellectual For Christ Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 20, 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.

Paul doesn’t begin this passage with practical advice or even spiritual encouragement. He starts with awe—with a hymn, a bold declaration of who Jesus is. Before we get to what we should do, Paul reminds us of who Christ is. This passage, Colossians 1:15–20, is considered one of the earliest ...read more

The Uncomfortable Christ

Contributed by Jessie Manuel on Aug 11, 2025

What kind of fire is Jesus talking about? Is this the fire of judgment? The fire of hell? The fire of destruction? I don't believe so. This is the fire of purification, the fire of truth, the fire that burns away what is false so that what is true can shine forth.

OPENING Good morning, church family. I want to begin today with a story that might help us understand something profound about the nature of Christ's ministry.

The Preeminent Christ Series

Contributed by Paul Dayao on Oct 2, 2025

In this magnificent passage, the Apostle Paul reveals why Jesus Christ is absolutely supreme as the Redeemer of our souls, the Creator of the universe, and the Head of the Church.

In our journey through Colossians, we have seen Paul give thanks for the church's faith, love, and hope. We have listened in on his prayer for them to be filled with the knowledge of God's will, to walk worthy, and to be strengthened by God's power. And all of this, he says, is because ...read more

This message views the biblical image of "ambassador for Christ" in the context of the Roman world. While sojourning on earth, we must represent our real homeland, the kingdom of heaven.
