Colossians 1:15-23 | The word preeminent isn’t one we use very often and it wasn’t used often when Paul wrote it. It’s a perfect word to describe a perfect Savior. Not only is creation in His hands, we are in His hands and because of that we are free to worship him.

Luke 24:1-9 | “He is not here, but has risen.” Those seven words spoken at the empty tomb changed everything for all of us. Because of Jesus’s death, burial, and resurrection, we can experience new life.

Matthew 20:29-34; Mark 1:40-42 | When we love someone who is hurting, it isn’t enough to express sympathy; in reality, that changes nothing. Empathy is a better approach. Empathy empowers compassion to move us to action. This message will remind us that we’re called to identify and understand other’s pain and serve them compassionately.
