1:3-9

We live in a world driven by "word of mouth." From Netflix shows to 90s fads like Furbies, we trust the recommendations of people we know far more than paid advertisements. But how does this translate to our faith? 

In this second part of our journey through Colossians 1, we explore the power of "hearing" the gospel. Paul celebrates the church in Colossae not because of a marketing campaign, but because their faith and love were so evident that people couldn't stop talking about them. Join us as we discuss our shared calling to be "preachers"—not just from a pulpit, but through our lives, attitudes, and love for one another. 

Key Takeaways:

The Power of Invitation: Why 88% of people would attend a gathering if simply invited by a friend, yet so few of us make the ask. 

Identity Beyond the Slur: How the term "Christian" started as a slang insult and what it means to truly live as a "Little Christ" today. 

Beautiful Feet: Moving beyond physical appearances to see the beauty of those who carry hope, peace, and grace into broken places. 

Mining the Depths: Why "cherry-picking" verses isn't enough and why we are committed to diving deep into the full context of Scripture. 

Scripture: Colossians 1:3-9, Romans 10:14-15
