In this episode of Faith & Family, Steve Wood explores the profound teaching of Colossians 1:15–20, highlighting the preeminence of Christ — the only time this term appears in the New Testament. Jesus holds first place over all creation and over all aspects of redemption, leaving no room for “add-ons” or supplemental wisdom.
Steve breaks down this passage into two parts:
Preeminence in Creation (1:15–17) – Christ as the active Creator in whom all things were made and hold together.
Preeminence in Redemption (1:18–20) – Christ as head of the Church, reconciler of all things, and the fullness of God dwelling in Him.
Listeners will learn:
How Paul refutes false teachers by emphasizing Christ’s fullness and supremacy
The connection between creation (Genesis 1:1, Hebrews 11:3, John 1:1–3, Nehemiah 9:6) and Christ’s role as Redeemer
Why understanding Christ’s supremacy is essential for forming a strong faith and countering secular teachings like theistic evolution
Practical insights for helping youth grow in faith and remain rooted in Christ
This episode challenges believers to see Christ as supreme in all things, both visible and invisible, and to ground their faith in Him alone.
