Summary

Continuing in our series, Live Again, Pastor Ben Stuart walks us through Colossians 3:7-11 and helps us understand how to navigate the tensions and conflict in the world today. How does the reality of the resurrection of Jesus change how we are supposed to live in difficult times? "In these you too once walked, when you were living in them. But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth. Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator. Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free; but Christ is all, and in all." - Colossians 3:7-11
