Pastor Shane shares a message reminding us that worry adds nothing to our lives. Instead, when worry knocks, we’re invited to answer with faith, choosing to rest in God’s promises rather than give in to fear. This kind of faith isn’t passive—it’s an active, intentional trust that God knows our needs and cares for us deeply.

Pastor Shane’s message today challenges believers to view political engagement as an expression of their faithfulness to God, using their influence to bring godly values into society while remaining anchored in the hope of Christ’s return.

Amidst the chaos in our world, Christians are called to persevere by staying grounded in faith, inspiring one another to love and good deeds, and gathering for mutual encouragement. In the series How Then Should We Live?, Pastor Shane brings a message from Hebrews that guides us on living faithfully in these times.

The Bible list things that will take place in the ends times as the return of Christ draws near. Some of the events that are listed include wars, rumors or wars, and varying natural disasters. As we continue to see such types of events unfold in our world today, Pastor David encourages believers to have expectant hope in Christ and remain encouraged as we cling to His promises.

We are all familiar with the current events plaguing our news and social media outlets every day. As believers we know that our days here on earth are numbered and the day of the Lord's return draws closer and closer each day. During such uncertain times, Pastor Shane encourages believers on how we should live with hopeful expectation as we continue to put our faith in God's plans.

Pastor Shane piggy backs off of last weeks message instructing on different types of earthly relationships by emphasizing the importance of prayer in our daily lives. Intimate prayer and yielding to the Lord are essential to growth in the Christian life but can often times be put on the back burner. Christian's should find hope in walking closely with the Lord.

Paul tells the Colossians what the Christian life looks like in a marriage relationship, a parent-child relationship, a master-servant relationship, and a Christian-non-Christian relationship. This passage highlights the importance of living our relationships in a way that brings honor and glory to the Lord.

In Paul's letter to Collosae, he instructs them how they should live their lives after coming into relationship with Jesus. As believers we are called to live different from the world, putting off our old ways of thinking and taking on the character of Jesus.

Paul urges believers who have been raised with Christ to seek the things that are above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. This implies a shift in focus from earthly concerns to heavenly priorities.

Jesus set believers free from man-made rules and regulations. Paul reminded the church at Colossae of this as they wrapped their minds around Jesus’ divine nature and complete work on the cross. Through his letter, Paul warns the church against any philosophy of life that is based solely on human ideas. No matter how good it sounds or how harmless it seems, it will eventually leave us empty.
