26Sep2010 Colossians 3:21
21 Fathers, do not embitter your children, or they will become discouraged. Fathers can have a greater influence on the outcome of children than we thought. Studies have shown that the relationship of a father to their children is key to their successful transition to adulthood. If fathers are absent or disengaged from their sons,Continue reading “26Sep2010 Colossians 3:21”
25Sep2010 Colossians 3:18-19
18 Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. 19 Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them. I happen to think that men and women are different, that we have different areas of struggle and different weaknesses as a result of Adam and Eve’s sin choices. Here isContinue reading “25Sep2010 Colossians 3:18-19”
24Sep2010 Colossians 3:15-16

There are no racial, ethnic, religious, economic, or class distinctions in the Body of believers. I like churches that look like Baskin Robins, 31 flavors all in one place. But thereContinue reading “23Sep2010 Colossians 3:11”
22Sep2010 Colossians 3:2-3
2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. You might have heard the phrase, “He is so heavenly minded he is no earthly good.” But I think the opposite is true much more often, that we are soContinue reading “22Sep2010 Colossians 3:2-3”
21Sep2010 Colossians 2:20
20 Since you died with Christ to the basic principles of this world, why, as though you still belonged to it, do you submit to its rules: Dead men don’t have to obey the speed limit! They don’t get cited for criminal misconduct. They never get in bar fights. They don’t commit adultery. They neverContinue reading “21Sep2010 Colossians 2:20”
20Sep2010 Colossians 2:17
17 These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ. I am amazed again and again at the lengths people will go to grasp shadows rather than the reality! The verse right before this one spells out some legalistic proscriptions that the false teachers in theContinue reading “20Sep2010 Colossians 2:17”
