Colossians 1

We know that true, deep and even intergenerational Christian community is essential: based on a need that God made us with, and planted deep inside our very essence and being, in His image. God made us for each other and draws us together in His Word and Sacrament. God places us in families, churches, youth ministry and more to meet our need for community

In the 2021 YouthLead curriculum, A Walk Made Worthy, we will explore how young people can remain humbly confident in their faith through times of struggle, times of joy and times of temptation.

It can be tempting to start to think that the gospel just isn’t quite enough and we need something more…something different. In this devotion we see, just like the Colossians did, that we don't need more than Jesus and His gospel.

The Colossians had heard and received the gospel of Jesus Christ, but they were also impacted to false teachers. These false teachers had a message that was not the true Christian gospel message. This devotion reminds us of our certainty in Jesus.

As we look at the letter to the Colossians, we can see how they set their minds on things above and as a result, they were living and active in faith and love! In this first in a series, we look at how the physical condition of a church doesn't always show us how beautiful the Gospel truly is.
