As we close our Dwell series Aaron James leads us through Colossians 3:1-17 as we consider what it means to dwell richly in the word of Christ among each other. Here, we discuss why Paul was writing to the church in Colossae and his teaching of bringing to wholeness their relational dynamics among each other in God's truth.
Application is the Point
July 14, 2024 • Andrew Adams • John 15:1–8, 2 Kings 22—23
Jesus taught us that to glorify God we are to have fruitful lives (John 15:8). This week, Pastor Andrew continued our Dwell series by reviewing how a fruitful life is more than a spiritual or emotional reality. Here we learn that abiding in God's Word is for the sake of applying it to our lives in obedience. In this obedience, we find ourselves with repentant hearts and authentic lives following after Jesus.
Meditating on God’s Word: What it is and What it’s Not
July 7, 2024 • Jon DeYonker • Psalm 1:1–3
In the 2nd week of our Dwell series, Reach’s Youth Lead Jon preaches a message from Psalm 1 discussing delighting in God’s instruction and meditating on God’s word. In this message, we discuss how the vehicle to delight in God's instructions is meditating on God's word. Jon also discusses the difference between mindfulness, mental health, and meditation on God’s word.
Dwelling Consistently in the Word
June 30, 2024 • Andrew Adams • Deuteronomy 6:4–9
God’s Word reveals who God is. Scripture should be something we interact with on a regular basis, not just at church or Bible study. By prioritizing consistent time in God’s Word, the believer can be transformed by God’s love.
