Columbia Grove Messages

A Whole New You

How do you define who you are? In Colossians 3:1–17, we’re reminded that our deepest identity is found in Jesus: chosen, holy, and dearly loved. Join us as we explore what it means to leave our old ways behind and live with compassion, forgiveness, and love.

Fake Faith

We can do all the “right” things and still lose sight of Jesus. In “Fake Faith,” Pastor Andrew walks through Colossians 2:16–23 and asks what’s really driving our faith. Are we trying to look spiritual, or are we growing in compassion, forgiveness, and love? It’s a reminder to come back to Jesus—and trust that he is enough.

Alive & Free

Ever feel like you’re not doing enough to be a good Christian? In “Alive and Free,” Pastor Andrew explores Colossians 2:6-15 and the shame trap that can turn faith into a burden. Discover how Jesus’ forgiveness frees us from striving to earn God’s love — and how gratitude helps us rediscover the joy of life in Christ.

The Glorious Mystery

In “The Glorious Mystery,” we explore Colossians 1:15–2:5 and the promise of “Christ in you, the hope of glory.” This message invites us to recognize the distractions that pull us away from Jesus, rediscover the treasure we already have in him, and lean on his presence as we grow in faith and love.

King Jesus

Who is Jesus, and what does that mean for our everyday lives? In Colossians 1:15–23, we meet the Jesus who reveals God, holds all things together, and brings us back into relationship with him through the cross. Join us as we explore what it means to trust Jesus as King—and bring our biggest challenges to the One who is enough.

 Who We Are

Who are we in Christ? We are accepted, secure, and significant. In “Who We Are,” part of our Colossians: Jesus Is Enough series, we explore Colossians 1:1–14 and the hope we have as God’s beloved children—redeemed, forgiven, and called to bear fruit. Discover how knowing who you are in Christ shapes how you live, love, and serve.

 From Generation to Generation

God calls older Christians to invest in younger ones. From Titus 2:1-6.

Sacred Places, Sacred Stories

Wherever we go, God is already there. In “Sacred Places, Sacred Stories,” we explore Psalm 139:7–12 and its reminder that no distance or darkness can place us beyond God’s presence. Discover how ordinary places and the stories of our lives can reveal His guiding hand.

The Self-Sufficient Church

In this message from Revelation 3:14–22, we look at Jesus’ warning to the church in Laodicea—a prosperous church that had become comfortable, self-reliant, and spiritually lukewarm. Their success created the illusion that they had everything they needed, while Jesus revealed how deeply they still needed Him.

Through the Father's Eyes

From Luke 15:11-32. What do you think God the Father feels about you?
