This sermon was preached by Jared Osborne on March 27, 2023 and is part 2 through our series Colossians.

Ricky Bobby's dad famously said "If you ain't first, you're last." We find out later that you can be second, third, fourth, heck (edit, obviously) you can even be fifth! But the fact of the matter is that if you aren't first, you aren't first. If something isn't first, it doesn't get the trophy, the honor, the status, or any other accolade. To be first is to show supremacy. 

This passage, Colossians 1:15-23, talks about Jesus being first and demanding first place in our lives. So here's the question, and Jared asks it perfectly: 

Is Jesus supreme in your life? Either he is, or he isn't, and there is no in-between.
