  • The Calling of a Husband
    An Exposition of Colossians 3:19
    Grab your Bibles and turn with me to Colossians 3. We will make it through
    one verse again today. I heard last week that it provided some
    entertainment value for some of you that we are moving so slowly. Don’t get
    too used to a verse per week. But these are important topics.
    As we said last week instead of looking at an entire paragraph of
    Scripture, which is our normal practice, we are doing here topical
    expositions. So we are explaining one verse, one main truth, and examining
    that topic in detail from multiple texts in their context.
    Last week we examined the role of a wife and her biblical priority. We saw
    that a wife worships Christ in her marriage through her joyful, willing
    submission to her husband. A godly woman finds freedom and liberty in
    trusting the Lord and not herself, being willing to let God bring about his
    plan in her life through her husband. We discussed what submission is and
    what it is not.
    Heard comments from many non-wives in the body about how a message not
    specifically addressing them was convicting. Joyful submission challenges
    each of us. For husbands it raises the bar on our leadership to be godly.
    I’m praising God at how his word works as we seek to strengthen and shore
    up our body in the fundamentals of the Christian life as he is rooting out
    wrong thinking and replacing it with truth and conviction.
    Now this week we will see that a husband worships Christ in his biblical
    leadership within the marriage relationship.
    4-Part Overview of a Husband’s Leadership
    1. The husband’s burden of biblical leadership
    2. The husband’s blueprint for biblical leadership
    3. The husband’s barriers to biblical leadership
    4. The husband’s blessing through biblical leadership

  • The Privileged Position of a Wife
    An Exposition of Colossians 3:18
    Take your Bible and turn with me to Colossians 3. We are going to continue
    our series this morning entitled, “Christ in the Common.” This study is a
    practical look at how Jesus intersects with everyday living. The goal of
    this study is to shore up our Christian living by going back to the
    fundamentals of how we are to live the Christ life.
    Our passage today is one verse, Colossians 3:18 and it is written to wives
    about the privileged duty of submission in marriage.
    My sisters, I know that you want to honor Jesus and I want you to leave
    this morning greatly encouraged with clarity and conviction and joy as you
    embrace your God-given calling. There is so much working against your
    ability to trust God in this area.
    And so, we need to be fortified in embracing God’s wisdom on this matter.
    So, in our time together we are going to reorient our thinking about a
    wife’s role back to the simple truth contained in Scripture. We will be
    washed together in the Word.
    This week we start off with wives. Husbands, parents and children… you will
    get yours next, but for now its “ladies first.”
    Today’s message will be slightly different in that we are really doing a
    topical exposition. This entire sermon is about one short topic from one
    verse. My goal is to bring the components you need to understand how to
    live for Christ in the area of submission.
    5 Truths for Understanding a Wife’s Privilege of Submission (Colossians
    3:18)
    1. The unfashionable principle of submission
    2. The unmistakable priority of submission
    3. The universal problem with submission
    4. The unnatural power for submission
    5. The unexpected payoff from submission
