Becoming A Disciple

From Knowing to Growing

October 16, 2022 • Jeff Cramer • Colossians 1:1–14, 1 Thessalonians 3:2–3

We're going to take a short venture thru Colossians because you're not alone as a newer believer. This book will help you live out your faith in Christ! It will put to rest many misconceptions about being a Christian. Paul is writing to a group of people he never meet. His letter was delivered to a town he never visited and read publicly to a church he never preached in. What could cause a man to do this, why would he invest his time like this?

Because of The Secret

October 30, 2022 • Jeff Cramer • Colossians 1:21–29

We're venturing thru Colossians to strengthen a basic-understanding of how to walk with Jesus! This is important because the New Testament is made up of about 75% Epistles (Those are the books that teach on Christian Living.) Point being, God cares about how WE live as one of His! I want to pass along to you small truths for using your whole Bible. You see, the word of God is living & powerful (Heb. 4:12) & can be trusted to speak to us in real-time. Here's an example of living well.

Gauging Your Growth

November 6, 2022 • Jeff Cramer • Colossians 2:1–15

As your faith is being built up in the word of God, may we also recognize that satan is working to wreak havoc on you & the church by using tactics to hinder us. This chapter has a tone change as a change in tone as Paul takes a serious position by addressing five dangers...

It's A Choice

November 13, 2022 • Jeff Cramer • Colossians 3

Our righteousness is found in Christ, which means we have a right standing before God is by grace. But, our obedience is seen in the daily choices we make. Living in the power of God’s word & NOT just talking about it. It's obedience to the person of Christ in His word. He helps us when we’re NOT living as we should and as a loving Father, He corrects & guides us.

I Can Show You the Way

November 20, 2022 • Jeff Cramer • Colossians 4, Colossians 3:18–25

Our faith in Christ finds expression in the way we live our lives with Him. Martin Luther renewed a fresh perspective during the Reformation (AD 1517) AND encouraged the preaching & teaching of God’s word so the common-man could understand God once again! Today we continue our learning by letting the Bible speak for itself. This final portion of Colossians connects us with practical areas of discipleship.
