Colossians

Get a glimpse into the rich truths in Bishop Courtney McBath’s book, Living at the Next Level. We weren’t meant to simply survive, or take hold of salvation merely to go to heaven. Instead, God desires us to take hold of the abundant, joyful, rewarding life that comes as a direct result of communion and relationship with Him!

Colossians + Philemon | Reading Plan + Study Questions

False teachings such as legalism, Greek philosophies, and superstitious beliefs had infiltrated the church in Colossae, and Apostle Paul penned this letter to remind the Colossians of the superiority and transcendence of Jesus Christ above all created things and man-made ideologies. If we are not alert enough, these heresies, which Paul considered as “hollow and deceptive philosophy,” can easily creep into our lives and shift our focus away from Jesus.

Through the Bible: Colossians

The New Testament contains letters that the Apostle Paul wrote to the early Church. In this study, we will delve into a number of these letters, exploring his rich theology, practical wisdom, and unwavering faith. Through these letters, we will be challenged, encouraged, and transformed as we seek to apply Paul's timeless truths to our own lives. Join us as we journey through these letters.

The Letters - Galatians | Colossians | Titus | Philemon

With many options to turn to for peace, security, and fulfillment, is Jesus enough? Many have developed a "Jesus And" approach to life based on comfort, success, income, or image. If we're honest, is "Jesus Only" our source for a fulfilling and purposeful life? Journey through the book of Colossians to help you answer these questions. This plan runs Sunday through Saturday for five weeks.

The Triangle Of What Controls You

Have you ever had a poor signal on your phone, when you can’t hear what the other person is saying? This happens because of the noise around you or because of where you are positioned. To hear God we sometimes need to disconnect from the noise around us. Over the next 10 days we will  use Colossians 3 to disconnect from busyness, mute the noise and connect to God. 

Disconnect - Unplug From the Noise
