Series: Jesus Says
Scripture: Bob Koo
Scripture: Luke 12:13-21

Synopsis: Jesus' teachings are clear: It is difficult for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. While the Parable of the Rich Fool emphasizes that point, Jesus also teaches that we can still be rich toward God regardless of our current state of wealth. Such a life starts with generosity, which begins with understanding God's generosity toward us.

Synopsis: Like Jacob, we would rather depend on our own devices than surrender to God's will. However, God's insistence on breaking our dependence on ourselves is not only a blessing, but absolutely necessary so that He can use us fully.

Scripture: Colossians 3:18 - 4:1
Series: Colossians - Be the Center
Speaker: Kee Won Huh

Synopsis: The gospel of Jesus Christ set us on a trajectory toward a vision for humanity that is still being realized today. In his historic theological assertion that there is "neither Jew nor Greek, male nor female, slave nor free," the Apostle Paul summarizes and captures the gospel's ultimate vision. Over the centures, this vision has progressively transformed human relationships and institutions from the inside out. In Paul's letter to the Colossians, we catch a glimpse of how the revolution got started.

Scripture: Colossians 3:1-14
Series: Colossians - Be the Center
Speaker: Kee Won Huh

Synopsis: Your true self cannot be found in sin. Sin leads only to distortion of what you were created to be. Your true self can only be found in Christ. He calls each of us to discard the rags of the old self and put on the new self Christ has purchated and tailored just for you.

Scripture: Colossians 2:1-10
Series: Colossians - Be the Center

We apologize the Scripture was not recorded this week. Here is the text for your reference:

I want you to know how hard I am contending for you and for those at Laodicea, and for all who have not met me personally. 2 My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, 3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. 4 I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding arguments. 5 For though I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit and delight to see how disciplined you are and how firm your faith in Christ is.

6 So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him,7 rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.

8 See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces[a] of this world rather than on Christ.

9 For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, 10 and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority.

Sermon Synopsis:

Jesus and the gospel are the standard for all reality. Given that God is the creator of all that is real, all ideas that claim truth will correspond with the teachings of Christ. To guide us through the maze of ideas and claims that is the modern world, it is essential we train our hearts more deeply in the truth of God. Without God's centering truth, we will more easily succum to the mechainations of a world bent on distorting the truth, reality, and love of God.

Scripture: Matthew 19:14
Series: Stand Alone

What is it about children that we must have that will give us the kingdom of God? It's when we realize we are incapable without God and that our faith depends solely on the presence of God to lead us through this life we become child-like. When we surrender all of our own justifications and reasons, and take God at his word, just like a child does his father or mother-- that's when we will see his kingdom come in our lives.
