Growing Takes Following

Part 1

June 18, 2023 • Ken Mitchell

Growing always takes following: Following those who teach us. Follow those who counsel us. Following those who have wisdom. The apostle Paul reminds us WHY the greatest leader to follow is Jesus. And when you do, HE reveals what's most important: Who we truly are in Christ and what it takes to become more like HIM!!

Walk Like Christ

Passage: 3:18-4:1 The greatest "cuss word" in our culture is the S word... as in SUBMIT! Nobody wants to follow anybody else. We are all "jockeying for positions of leadership and authority." But what happens when we get there? The key to leadership is not the power but in the ability to serve. Listen and learn how to be in authority like Jesus our Master, and under authority like Jesus our Servant.

What's On The Outside?

Passage: Colossians 3:12-17 Being like Christ has this great (and true) assumption that it begins with our heart and our relationship with Jesus. Last week we learned that the "BEING" begins on the inside! But it doesn't stop there... If I’m going to Be Like Christ then I have to Love like Christ. The good news is that the apostle Paul doesn't leave us with just an idea... he gives us 5 practical steps to getting there! Listen and learn about the "Doing behind the Being!"

What's On The Inside?

Passage: Colossians 3:1-11 The great frustration as a Christian isn’t that they know Jesus is in them. The great frustration is once I become a Christian what do I do about the sin thing? If Christ is in me… Why am I still blowing it!? What’s broke? Why do I still go back to the same sins I had before I knew Christ? What’s broken? The apostle Paul in chapter 3 gives us a great truth we often forget to help us encounter that "sin thing!"
