Grace Community Church - Nashville

Modern greetings have become casual to the point of carrying little meaning and adding almost no value to our conversations and correspondence. But when Paul opened his letter to the Colossians, he made bold claims about Christ that called his readers to believe. Today, we will hear these claims and ask ourselves if we believe. Let’s begin by faith.

Grace Community Church exists to build spiritually healthy people for ministry in the world. One of the ways that we pursue this mission is by gathering each Sunday for corporate worship, prayer, and biblical teaching. The corporate nature of this gathering is both edifying to the believer and a witness of God’s grace to the world. Sermon speaker is Scott Patty unless otherwise noted.

This week, Scott and Josh discuss the thinking behind Grace’s commitment to expositional preaching and introduce our current sermon series, Christ in You: The Message of Colossians. 

The Words of Grace Podcast seeks to clarify, amplify, and apply the Sunday morning sermon at Grace Community Church. From time to time we will address other topics. We hope these podcasts help impress the Word of God into your everyday life. Episodes are hosted by Josh Hussung and Scott Patty.

Today we begin a series of sermons from the letter of Colossians by asking three questions. What are we holding in our hands? What is the message of this letter? What should we anticipate in the months ahead? Answering these questions will help to increase our appreciation for Colossians, engage our attention to understand its truth, and set our intention to seek Christ and live as those who are united to him by faith. Let’s begin.

The work of Christ will continue until he returns. He has given his Spirit to his church to be his witnesses in the world. The Book of Acts is the history of Christ’s work in the decades after the cross and resurrection. It ends with the Apostle Paul in prison, but the gospel going forth unhindered. The message to us is to continue on with Christ, in Christ, for the sake of Christ’s glory today.

Discipleship did not end when Jesus was crucified. Jesus was raised from the dead and is alive. He has gathered and commissioned his disciples who follow him today. Our discipleship continues as we follow Jesus filled with his Spirit, as individuals who now form a church, and in specific locations as the gospel goes to all the world. Today, as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, continue to walk with him.
