     | 5,521 views

    St. Paul appreciated, and needed his friends. Jesus needed friends. We need friends.

    Almost 6 months after we began studying St. Paul’s letter to the Colossian Church here on Sunday mornings we reach its conclusion. This letter – or Epistle – was probably written between 52 and 56 AD; about 20 to 25 years after the death and resurrection of Jesus; and whereas ...read more

    I used this sermon as one of several in a series on Clay Pots (Earthen Vessels). This was the one I used on Father’s Day during that series.

    I recently came across a Chinese parable that eludes to our thoughts for today’s text. It’s a tale about a water-bearer and his two pots of clay. An elderly peasant had two large clay pots. One of the pots had a crack down its side to a point about half way. The other pot, perfect! Each had been ...read more
