    Colossians - Jesus Rules & Heaven is Real

    While in college, one of my good friends, Alex, got a job working as a barista at a Starbucks near campus. Not long after he started, he'd come back to our dorm talking about a guy named Tony who came to his Starbucks twice a day. He'd come early in the morning, play a round of golf, and come back in the afternoon. He had a specific morning order and a specific afternoon order. And every day, Alex would make the order and hand Tony his drinks. Tony was a topic of conversation not because of his order, but because of how he tipped. Twice a day, he'd stop in, pick up his drinks, and hand Alex a $50 tip. Why on earth would someone tip a barista $100 a day to make two coffee drinks? It turned out that Tony was Tony Kukoc, a three-time NBA Champion who played with Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman, and the rest of the ‘96, ‘97, and ‘98 Chicago Bulls. He still lived in Deerfield, where the Bulls have their practice facility. This Sunday, we'll continue walking through the book of Colossians. Paul makes a point that the Christian life should look so different than the world; people will be confused by how you live.

    Colossians - Christ is First in Religion

    When I was a kid, one of my favorite restaurants was The Old Country Buffet. Anytime my grandma made the trip from Florida to Wisconsin, I knew we'd be hitting the "OCB!" Was the food quality?…Meh, but you could eat as much as you wanted. And for me, that meant unlimited fried chicken and several bowls of gummy bears! I once heard a pastor named JD Greer refer to the city of Colossae as the Golden Corral of worship. Any god, any practice, as much or as little as you'd like. This culture made following Jesus pretty challenging. When I look at the culture we're in, it's not so different. I can't wait to spend Sunday morning with you, as we continue looking at who Jesus is, in a buffet of beliefs.

    Colossians - The Wonder of Grace

    When you read through Colossians 2:8-15, two things stand out. The first is how difficult it is to work through this passage. It’s very technical with terminology that is hard to fully understand. But the second observation is that these verses ooze grace. If you were to squeeze this passage, grace would come out. If you bumped into this passage, grace would spill out. In fact, if you look at this whole letter to the Colossians, it begins with grace, it ends with grace, and everything in between is just grace. Paul never recovered from the wonder of grace. Grace changes hearts, changes minds, and transforms our wills. Without grace, religion is just an exercise in discipline. Without grace, marriages wither and die. Without grace, children grow resentful and frustrated. Without grace, souls shrivel and harden. Without grace, God seems distant and cold. The best definition of grace I’ve come across is this one, in the form of an acronym: God’s Riches At Christ’s Expense In other words, He was punished so that we could be pardoned. He was put to death so that we could live. He was called a criminal so that I could be called a saint. He was rejected by the Father so that we could be accepted by the Father. That’s grace, and it is so important. You can know the right thing, you can even do the right thing, but the world is so tired of Christians who say they know the right things but in whom there is no grace. Join us this weekend as discuss the critical importance of grace in the Christian life and how you can continue to grow in it.

    Colossians - Rooted in Christ

    In Colossians 1 Paul tells us that his goal is to present everyone mature in Christ. Beginning in chapter two, he will lay out what that looks like. He will encourage us to live “rooted” to Christ. Living this way is so important that it is one of our core values as a church: Live a Rooted Life Prayer, Scripture, and worship are the heartbeat of our relationship with God. Through scripture and prayer, we seek God’s presence, listen for His voice, and align our hearts with His will. Through worship, we respond to who God is with gratitude, reverence, and joy. This weekend, we’ll explore the question, “What is going to happen in your life if you live this way? What kind of person are you going to become if you make prayer, Scripture, and worship a priority in your life? What kind of person does God want you to become? I will suggest three things will happen right out of this passage. God will give you a crazy love for others, He will grow a big faith in you that crowds out fear, and He will create in you a grateful heart. Join us this weekend as we delve into what your life could look like as a result of living the rooted life.

    Colossians - First in Suffering

    What should be the main thing at a church? What should be the focus? Paul makes it crystal clear. “He is the one we proclaim, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone fully mature in Christ. To this end I strenuously contend with all the energy Christ so powerfully works in me.” (Colossians 1:27–29, NIV) That means we do not proclaim clever human insights. We do not proclaim self- improvement, stress-management, life-balance, or career advancement. We do not proclaim a system of beliefs. We do not proclaim a political agenda. We do not proclaim a set of traditions. We proclaim Him. We proclaim Christ because He is the light of the world, because He is the creator and sustainer of all that exists, and because each of us has been created for his good pleasure. We proclaim Christ because He is the kingdom-bringer, and the sin-bearer. We proclaim Him because He is the death-defeater, the life-giver, and the hope- bringer. TO say that we proclaim Christ is to say that Christ has changed our Facebook status from enemies of God to friends of God. To proclaim Him means we are betting the farm on Him and staking our lives to Him. Notice too that Paul says the Christ is proclaimed to “everyone.” We want everyone to grow up into Jesus, to become fully mature in Him. This is why we gather on Sunday morning and why we gather in groups throughout the week. It was why we encourage things like serving and generosity, and why we insist on living the rooted life.

    Colossians - Jesus is First - That's My King

    We may live in a medium-sized town in central Indiana, but God says we also live in an invisible kingdom that supersedes and controls our lives here in Indiana. It is an amazing truth that an invisible God took on a visible human body so that we could become a part of His invisible kingdom. Every kingdom has a king that rules from somewhere. Scripture says that King Jesus rules from Heaven and, through the Holy Spirit, also rules in our hearts. The Apostle Paul spent several words describing our King to us in Colossians. I’ll look forward to “unpacking” some of those tomorrow at SCC. If you can’t be there in person, I hope you will watch online, on Facebook, or on our YouTube Channel. Both services are viewable at 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM. Also, we will have our second “Sign-Up” Sunday tomorrow as we prepare to start our fall session of small groups. There are many new group opportunities. Come in person to sign up or check out “groups” on the “InsideSCC.org” website.

    Colossians - Jesus is the Hope Bringer

    She was taught to put treasured items in that box -- some china, some linen, some lace, heirlooms that were passed down to her that she hoped to give to her children one day, a kind of inheritance. She put that stuff in that box in the hope that one day she might get married and have a family of her own. In her day and time, this was a pretty common practice. A hope chest was a place where you stored items that represented your deepest desires and your greatest hopes. Hope chests aren’t too common anymore. Partly, I think, because our society has grasped the idea that it’s not always a great idea for a woman to put all of her hopes and dreams on the prospect of finding a man. It dawned on people that men may not always be the fulfillment of every longing in a woman’s heart. This is a good thing. But even though you may not have a hope chest in your home, we all have a place where we store our deepest desires and our greatest hopes. All human beings are hopers. We can’t help it. Hope is what gets us through. But the key question is, “What are you putting your hope in?

    Colossians – It’s all about Jesus

    Our Summer Series from the book of Proverbs, ”Get Smart,” ended last Sunday. I doubt any of us “arrived” or even raised our IQs, but I do think we received practical ways to apply Biblical principles in our lives and with our families. I hope you were able to be a part of those services, but if you weren’t, they are archived on our website for you to go back and listen to. Tomorrow is a historic day of celebration and some sadness as we send off Pastor Brandon to a new ministry calling as a church planter in Arizona. His twelve-year tenure with SCC has impacted many people, and the Rood family will be greatly missed. I have the opportunity on Sunday to introduce our new series from Colossians. The church in the city of Colossae began in much the same way as what Brandon Rood will be doing in the near future. We’ll see how the Apostle Paul ministered for a season in the city of Ephesus, and how one of the young converts there became the young minister who went to the city of Colossae to preach the Gospel to the Colossians. Epaphras was that young man’s name, and his ministry led to the birth of a new church, which he served as their first pastor. Any time God starts blessing, we can count on the devil to start blasting! The new church experienced the same things our churches go through today. People begin their relationship with Jesus Christ responding to God’s grace through faith in what Jesus did for us, but then move off that one secure foundation. Paul exhorted the Colossians and will exhort us not to try to add to what Jesus did for us through our own legalistic actions. Nor should we try to make Jesus fit into our lifestyles and personal syncretistic desires. Jesus Christ is Lord, the only foundation and standard of righteousness we submit to. Like the wisdom from the book of Proverbs, we will walk with Jesus as the Holy Spirit makes applications and releases His life through our lives. But how do you begin to do that? Join us this weekend as we talk about growing big faith!
