Ever feel like you’re doing all the “right” spiritual things yet your peace keeps slipping through your fingers? We take a fresh look at Colossians to find a center that holds, tracing Paul’s letter from a church pulled in many directions to a people grounded in the sufficiency of Christ. Along the way, we swap the self-improvement spiral for deep rootedness, and we explore how identity in Jesus changes emotional health from the inside out.
We start with the tension in Colossae: competing teachings, legalism, and trendy spirituality. Then we lift up Paul’s sweeping vision of Jesus as the image of the invisible God who holds all things together, including anxious hearts and messy days. From there, we get practical: how to “put off” corrosive reactions, “put on” compassion and patience, and let Christ’s peace act like an umpire when emotions flare. You’ll hear simple, doable rhythms that help you stay steady: letting Scripture dwell richly, practicing watchfulness and cultivating thankfulness that grounds your emotions.
If you’ve been searching for a calmer way to live your faith, this conversation offers gentle structure and strong theology. We talk about gracious speech that carries the flavor of Christ, purpose in everyday encounters, and why you don’t have to earn wholeness when you already have it in Him. Walk away with language for your next hard moment, a handful of practices to reset your day, and a renewed confidence that Jesus is enough for peace, growth, and joy.
