Peace. It seems to be in short supply these days. We hear of war abroad, and we worry about war reaching our own shores. Peace within homes and within our hearts seems to have vanished too. So how do we remedy this? What Paul shared with the Colossians in the first century leads us to a source for our peace—and His name is Jesus. This week we learn how when we let the peace of Christ rule in our hearts, it truly changes everything else in our life, and can even change the world.

We live in an increasingly confusing society. It’s hard to know what is true, and many differing philosophies are ruling the day. Whether its new age spirituality, legalism, asceticism, stoicism, materialism, or many other “isms”, there is a whirlwind of ideas that can make it difficult to know what to believe. At the core of all of these issues, there is one question we must wrestle with: who is Jesus? If Jesus was just a good teacher, then people can have their own ideas on how they ought to live their lives. But if Jesus is truly the King over all creation, then we have to make a decision about living in response to His supremacy. About 2,000 years ago, the Apostle Paul wrote a letter to the Colossian church that centered around the same questions – who is Jesus? What did He do? What is He still doing? How does He set us free from the things of this world? How should we respond? Join us as we explore one of the most relevant letters in the entire New Testament – a letter that helps us see Jesus more clearly, especially as we prepare our hearts to celebrate His death and resurrection at Easter.
