Colossians: Made New

Colossians: Made New

Lessons

In this series, we’ll journey through the Book of Colossians to uncover the roadmap of faith. It begins personally with salvation, a milestone moment that marks the start of a new life in Christ. Following this, baptism becomes the first step of obedience, symbolizing death to sin and resurrection to new life. But salvation and baptism are just the beginning. True faith calls us to practical growth as we live out our Christian walk. God invites us to draw closer to Him daily, growing spiritually and reflecting His love through our actions and choices.

Lesson 1

Salvation: You Are Made New

Have you ever felt like you were playing hide and seek with God? Sometimes it feels like no matter how hard you look, you cannot find Him. In the childhood game, we often missed the kid hiding in plain sight. The same is true for God. We often miss Him because we make it far more mysterious than it needs to be. God is not found in some complicated program or supernatural vision quest — God is within you right now. Let’s open our Bibles to Colossians to learn how Paul helped some new Christians unlock the mystery of their spiritual lives.

Lesson 2

Baptism New Life

We spoke about salvation last week. Talk about a milestone moment for someone! But, what happens next? Baptism is everyone’s first step after they experience salvation. As we explore the symbolism of baptism, we will see that it is so much greater than a mere swim in a church. It’s a picture of death and resurrection.

Lesson 3

Spiritual Growth: New You

We have looked at the Book of Colossians as a roadmap for our faith. It starts personally with salvation, then we make it public with baptism, and now it’s time to get practical. Salvation is just the start. What does it look like to live as a Christian? The answer is growth. God wants you to grow. In this final sermon, we will invite students to grow closer to God in three ways.
