Christ Alone: The Mystery Revealed, the Debt Erased
This past Sunday, Danny Reid led our class through Colossians 2:15–23 with a powerful reminder: Christ has disarmed every spiritual force and triumphed over them at the cross. With passion and clarity, Danny emphasized Paul’s warning to the Colossians—and to us—not to be taken captive by legalism, self-righteousness, or manmade traditions.
Through relatable examples and heartfelt teaching, Danny highlighted the dangers of elevating personal preferences to spiritual mandates. Whether it’s Sabbath practices, baptism methods, or music styles, he reminded us that anything shifting our focus away from Jesus is a shadow—not the substance.
In a world of distractions and doctrinal confusion, we were encouraged to return to the simplicity and power of our faith in Christ—who alone is our hope, our victory, and our freedom.
Watch the lesson again to be reminded why in Christ, “It is finished”—and nothing can cheat us out of our eternal reward.
Above All Else: Living the New Life in Christ
This Sunday, Rand Wall will teach from Colossians 3:1–11—a powerful call to live with our hearts set on things above. As Paul urges believers to put off the old self and put on the new, Rand will explore what it truly means to let Christ be the standard of right and wrong in our lives.
This lesson shifts the focus from external rules to internal transformation, emphasizing personal holiness, authentic Christian ethics, and unity in Christ. Whether you've walked with Christ for decades or are still finding your footing, this message will challenge and encourage you.
Don’t miss this inspiring lesson on growing in Christlike character—where old habits are shed, and new life begins.
More Than a Meal: Fellowship at Its Finest
Sixteen women gathered at Adair Kitchen on July 24—not just for lunch, but for connection. In the midst of crisp salads and sweet laughter, hearts were nourished as much as plates were filled. True fellowship happens when faith and friendship meet around the table—and this was one of those days.
Don’t miss the next gathering—
There’s always room at the table—come join the fellowship!
Encore Fall Dinner: An Evening to Savor—Together
