Instead of a traditional message, Zack and Lindsey talk about "Things No One Tells You About A Church Plant" as they reflect over the last five years and some of the hidden beauty in what God has brought together at Kindred. Their discussion is followed by worship led by Becky Ykema to close our service today.

This message is from our online service on Sunday, September 7th, 2025. You can watch the recorded livestream here.

In a culture of optimization, what are we to make of seasons that disrupt our productivity and our sense of momentum and achievement? What antidote is there for the fear of wasted time or the sting of regret as we experience disappointment and discouragement when we’re forced in another direction? This morning we explore the idea that there is no such thing as wasted time in the Kingdom of Heaven.

We close our study of the book of Colossians by taking a look at Paul’s last challenge to us: care and compassion for the outsider. Using our values of “Selfless” and “Sincere,” how can we take our theology and make it a practical way of living. Exploring the idea of Praxis, the call for the follower of Jesus is to always be ready to implement the Way of Jesus no matter what we come across.

Today we approach a difficult passage around submission, obedience, and servitude. Paul's directives to households have long been used to subjugate women, overburden men, silence children, and excuse the corruption of power. Though, what if these verses were intended to demonstrate our freedom from hierarchy and act as a subtle resistance to the way of patriarchy and degradation? If Jesus truly is Lord of all, that means we are no one's lord. We explore what this means for each of us in our families and in our relationships with one another.

We’re taking a short break from our study of Colossians as we navigate this unique and challenging moment in the life of our church. Displaced and still searching for our next home, it would be easy to let discouragement and disappointment steal our hope. This week we’re reminded of a story from the book of Acts featuring Paul and a woman named Lydia that inspires us to keep trusting, believing that every rejection is a redirection.

When we talk about simple grace (see "A Simple Kind of Life"), a natural question develops – how , then, are we supposed to live – and what about all of the behaviors that Paul talks about over and over again? Don’t they matter? Great question – of course behaviors matter, theological stances matter – they just aren’t the point. Jesus and his work is, the rest is what we learn and grow in for the rest of the time we spend on earth. We change as people to act more and more like Jesus not because it’s a rule, but because our wants and desires are more like Jesus’s when we are close to Jesus. Rules don’t change hearts, laws don’t make obedient citizens. But there are a lot of guidelines even here from Paul about what life COULD look like with a changed heart that craves the good life. So today, as we enter into chapter 3, this is “The Other Side of the Coin.”

Colossians chapter 2 is Paul at his best – cautioning the Colossian church (and us today) about the influence of teachers that infiltrate Christian circles with the intention of confusing people, furthering strange agendas, or making personal profit. We explore what it looks like to be rooted and begin to grow in the simple message and ways of Jesus: that Jesus is sufficient for all that we want and all that we need.

Today we begin our look at the book of Colossians, an ancient letter written to an ancient people trying to make sense of the way of Jesus among a diverse and spiritually confused culture. Being woven together is a powerful vision for the meaning of life, and an invitation out of darkness and into the Kingdom of Light. Together we’ll begin to explore these question, “If Jesus holds power over death, Jesus is LORD. If Jesus is LORD what does that mean for the darkness and evil and corruption, I see around me? If Jesus is LORD, what does it mean for authority and power and empires and government? If Jesus is LORD, what does it mean for communion and connection with people I was taught to despise?”

In the final week of our Jonah series, we are confronted with God's mercy and justice. How can both be true? This seeming incompatibility was the source of Jonah's rage, bitterness, and self-righteousness. As Jonah is brought face to face with his own hypocrisy, we are invited to examine what keeps us cut off from compassion and cut off from God.

Jonah is about more than a man being swallowed by a mystical giant fish. It is about complex themes like mercy, hate, and redemption. It’s about the parts of our heart bent toward judgement and self-righteousness and our own fallibility. It begs us to ask, "Can people really change?" We're meant to see that Jesus’ journey to the depths of hell and out the other side – his death and resurrection - is more sufficient than Jonah’s and all those who have come before him to soften our judgement, to shift our biases, to give us a new heart bent toward love and grace and compassion.
