Piecing together the message of Colossians.

Over the past few months we have been looking in detail at Paul's letter to the church at Colosse, and trying to learn what God wants to say to us today.

God weaves the irresistible thread of his sovereign will and purpose through human history. He is in ultimate control. In both the despondency of failure and the heady highs of victory, God is always one step ahead, all things working for the good of those who love him.

As Nehemiah hears of the plight of the holy city, he cries out in pain and confession to God. Everything lay in ruins; but as we know, God has a habit of bringing restoration out of ruin.

What does the last book of the Bible really say, and is it relevant for today?

God's amazing gospel gives this world hope. Because of Jesus, Christians enjoy a new identity that transforms their lives. God has chosen to love us and call us together to worship and serve Him. The church is God's delight. He has chosen us and wants to bless us. As we live our lives for Christ, God intends to show people what true community and belonging looks like.
