Pastor Nate continues the series "Unshakeable," preaching from Colossians 3:5-8. This two-part sermon addresses the following:

1. a biblical view of sexuality

2. the deeper problem of sin

3. love and truth dwelling together

Preaching from Colossians 3:1-4, Pastor Nate explains the concept of being “heavenly minded;” that is, how to “set our minds on things above” so that we do the most earthly good. He addresses the questions:

1) Why is this important?

2) What does this mean?

3) How do Christians do this?

Preaching from Colossians 2:16-23, Pastor Nate expounds on three ways that empty religion can be hazardous to our spiritual health. In this text the apostle Paul warns against:

1. Empty legalism

2. Empty mysticism

3. Empty asceticism

True spirituality is found in "Jesus plus nothing." As Christians, we need only to cultivate our relationship with Christ. We have true freedom in Christ and are recipients of his lavish grace.

Guest Pastor Ken Keeler preaches from 2 Corinthians 10:1-5. In this passage the apostle Paul shows us four things necessary for victory in spiritual warfare.

1. The mind of Christ

2. The realization that we are in a spiritual battle

3. The application, by faith, of the proper spiritual weapons

4. The application of the right strategy

Pastor Nate preaches from Colossians 2:9-15. In this text, the apostle Paul argues against the doctrine of false teachers and defends the truth of Christ's finished, full and accomplished saving work. Believers are: (1) completely accepted in Jesus; (2) completely forgiven; and, (3) completely victorious.

Pastor Nate continues the Unshakeable Series, focusing on Colossians 2:1-8. Believers are encouraged (1) to "stick with Jesus" by standing firmly on the foundation of the gospel and (2) to contend for the faith of those who are not solidly rooted in Christ. It is also important to be aware of "counterfeit theologies."

Preaching from Colossians 1:24-29, Pastor Matthew speaks about proclaiming Christ, pursuing spiritual maturity and helping others mature.

Pastor Nate continues to expound on Colossians 1, describing how believers who are bearing gospel-shaped fruit can walk in the center of God's will through four specific ways.

1. Develop an active faith

2. Pursue your relationship with God.

3.Trust God through long, difficult trials.

4. Express gratitude to God.
