The Stability We Receive in Christ
| Colossians / 6 |
Stability is essential if we are to truly know freedom. But where we get our stability from is important. When we look to the things of the world for stability we inevitably find that what we thought was secure was actually uncertain and fragile. But when we look for our stability in Christ, we know that we have found certain eternal stability that will never fail. So what does that mean for us in practice? Read more

The Saviour We’ve Received
| Colossians / 3 |
When we are being rescued, it matters who our saviour is - what is their character? What are their intentions? Are they rescuing me for good or bad? This week we look at who our Saviour is.
