We are going to dive deep into the Letter to the Colossians for 10 weeks. We will begin the first 5 weeks in November and then take a break during December, picking the study of Colossians back in for 5 more weeks in January.

What if we stopped asking, "What is the church?"… and started asking, "How does the church ACT?" Because when you open the book of Acts, you don’t find a church sitting on the sidelines. You find a church filled with the Holy Spirit. A church that lived together. A church that reached people. A church that prayed boldly, served sacrificially, and took the message of Jesus everywhere they went. They didn’t just GO to church. They WERE the church. And for the next four weeks, we’re going to the book of Acts to be reminded of how the church Acts, and what happens as a result!

Most of us want to live well. We want good relationships, peace in our decisions, and fewer regrets—but nobody really teaches us how to do that. That’s where the book of Proverbs comes in. Proverbs isn’t a story and it’s not a list of religious rules. It’s God’s wisdom for real life. It talks about how we use our words, how we choose friends, how we handle money, anger, work, and temptation. Written mainly by King Solomon—one of the wisest people who ever lived—Proverbs was designed to train people, especially the young, in how life actually works. Proverbs shows us there are two paths we can walk: the way of wisdom or the way of foolishness. And the choices we make on those paths shape the lives we end up living. For the next 31 weeks we are going to study every chapter, every word and every truth that flows from the Book of Proverbs. There will be a few breaks through the next 31 weeks for stand alone messages, but by the end of 2026 our hope is that you walk in the ways of the wise and live well.
