Habits help you grow -- they are useful to imprint upon us the important things in life; what habits do you have that demonstrate that God is a priority in your life?

…that we would be strengthen to know, worship and obey Him because He loves us so much and is worthy of all our worship and is able to do far more in our lives than we could ever imagine

Knowing where you are now is important if you want to grow. This sermon is part of the "How to Grow" series based on the book by the same name. Looking at the church in Corinth we see how we must examine ourselves to know where we are in our own spiritual journey if we want to grow in our effectiveness.

The essence of growth is love for God and others

Spiritual growth: is it about God, or us? Spoiler: It's both. "Go beyond self-help. Don't be content with seeking information, a new approach, or superficial change. Don't settle for less than God desires. It's tragic when we succeed at the wrong goal. Our goal in growth must be nothing less than what God intends for us." (Darryl Dash)

Darryl Dash, Pastor and author of "How to Grow" joins us to introduce our new series.

Bill Thornton is the Lead Pastor at Flamborough Baptist Church. He brings a message titled, Soul Care.

As the series in Colossians comes to a close, what are the last words we're left with, and how do they impact us as we make Christ supreme in everything we do?

The Bible has a lot to say about living in right relationships.

Last week we learned that living as Christ followers means that are things we need to put away, and this week we discover the things we need to put on. Because we are God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, we are to live in such a way that we are reflecting His Spirit to those around us.

Christ is supreme in all things. It might be tempting to think that we should "be better people" because we can earn God's favour. But we put to death our sinful desires and put away sinful actions because we are part of God's new people! We do so because we are transformed by Christ.

What distracts you from following God? Colossians tells us to keep our eyes up and focused on Jesus, living in a manner worthy of our calling.

The Old Testament laws and regulations pointed to the fact that we needed a Saviour. That Saviour has now come, so don't let anyone tell you that you need to add anything to what Jesus has already done.

Understanding who Jesus is and what he did (and does!) guards us against falling for false substitutes.

The power of faithful ministry is that we use the gifts that God has given us, to be the people (the church) that He wants us to be.

It might cost you to be faithful, but a faithful minister counts the cost of gospel proclamation. Listen in as Pastor Aaron Groat talks about this challenging passage from Colossians 1.

Who is this Jesus, and why can he forgive sin and offer redemption?

Spiritual Growth isn’t easy but it’s expected! In this second message in the Christ is Supreme series, Pastor Aaron looks at how we are doing in the area of growing in Christ.
