Welcome to Open the Bible with Pastor Colin Smith, where today we're exploring the theme of joy in a truly Christ-centred church. We will delve into how churches need not be burdened with rules and regulations, but can be places where joy is abundant and burdens are lifted, following the true message of Jesus. Discover the choices Jesus made that set him apart, and how these stir up conflict yet lead to freedom and joy. With insights from Mark chapter 2, you'll hear how Jesus’s mission was to do good and save life, offering friendship to sinners and confronting false religions. So, which path will you choose? Will you align with Jesus’s uplifting message or get caught up in rule-bound religion? Join us to reflect on these pivotal questions.
