Jesus Over Everything

A series on Colossians

Faithful Servants of Jesus

September 6, 2020 • Lorenzo Elizondo

In the closing verses of Colossians, Paul encourages his congregation to remain faithful in their prayer, witness, and service. It's through our faithfulness that Christ works through us. We share our faith, grow through our difficulties in all areas of life.

Jesus Over My Family

August 30, 2020 • Lorenzo Elizondo

Jesus is over everything, even our families. In the first half of Colossians 3 Paul gives instructions for spouses, in the second half he provides commands for children. God has designed families for his glory and his purpose.

Jesus Over My Marriage

August 23, 2020 • Lorenzo Elizondo

Marriage was created by God. In his goodness, God brings us together as families with distinct roles and responsibilities. When we follow God’s will and instruction for marriage, his goodness and mercy will be reflected in our families.

The Jesus-Centered Life Part 2

August 16, 2020 • Lorenzo Elizondo

Is Jesus over everything in your life? As Christians, we put our old self to death. All worldly things in us must be laid to rest as we enjoy the peace and freedom given to us freely from God.

The Jesus-Centered Life Part 1

August 9, 2020 • Lorenzo Elizondo

Christ has won victory over sin, death, every demonic power, and frees us from our old life. We are not only saved from something, he saves us for something. Jesus saves us from sin unto his life. He saves us from our past unto our future, he saves us from darkness, unto light.

The Work of the Gospel

July 19, 2020 • Lorenzo Elizondo

The word gospel simply means "good news", the good news of Jesus. In his life, death, and resurrection we have salvation from our sins. The gospel works in us, through us, and around us, and frees us to follow Jesus and play a part in God's big story.

The Preeminence of Christ

July 12, 2020 • Lorenzo Elizondo

Jesus is superior, he is supreme, he is fully and sufficient in all things. This is why we say, Jesus Over Everything. Jesus was, has and will always be more than enough.

Pray for Growth

July 5, 2020 • Lorenzo Elizondo

As Christians, we are to be filled with the knowledge of God. In Christ we have forgiveness from our sin, and now walk in freedom and joy. We honor the Lord in all that we do, bear fruit, and anticipate return of our king, Jesus.

The Truth of the Gospel

June 28, 2020 • Lorenzo Elizondo

In the opening verses of Colossians, Paul reminds of the Gospel. We are not saved by what we do, or how hard we try to please God. We are saved by Jesus’ life, death on the cross, and his resurrection alone.

Jesus Over Everything

June 21, 2020 • Lorenzo Elizondo

Jesus is the divine, preeminent Son of God. He rules and reigns over all creation, both the visible and invisible. Through him we are forgiven for our sins and receive salvation by grace, through faith alone.
