Ep. 45 A Life Of Loyalty (pt 2 of “This Is The Life”)

In the shadow of Judas’ betrayal at the Last Supper, Jesus reveals that true loyalty to Him is not proven by outward claims but by honestly confronting our own capacity for disloyalty, embracing the cross as God’s supreme display of glory, and living out a costly, Christlike love that visibly marks us as His disciples. John 13:21-27,31-35. 3-8-26. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 44 A Life Of Service (pt 1 of “This Is The Life”)

Because Jesus—fully secure in His divine identity—humbled Himself to cleanse us, true discipleship is revealed when we receive His cleansing grace and then take up the towel to serve others sacrificially, even when it is unseen and costly. John 13:3–10,14–16. 3-1-26. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 43 Eternal Life (pt 6 of Christianese: The Language Of Faith)

Eternal life is God’s promised future in which He makes all things new—dwelling with His redeemed people forever in a restored creation marked by His presence, the removal of sin and death, and the joyful privilege of worshiping, serving, and reigning with Christ. Revelation 21:1-8; 22:1-5. 2-22-26. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 42 Faith (pt 5 of Christianese: The Language Of Faith)

What is faith, really? Is it blind belief? Positive thinking? Ignoring doubt? Part 5 of “Christanese: The Language of Faith” looks to Hebrews 11 to identify the true definition of faith. It is more than a religious word; it’s a foundation, a movement, and a way of life shaped by trust in God. Hebrews 11:1-6. 2-15-26. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 41 Sanctified (pt 4 of Christianese: The Language Of Faith)

Through Christ’s saving work, God transforms believers from who they once were into people set apart for His glory—redeemed from their past, freed from sin’s control, and empowered by the Spirit to live holy lives. 1 Corinthians 6:9-20. 2-1-26. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 40 Salvation (pt 3 of Christianese: The Language Of Faith)

Because we can’t fix our sin or make ourselves right with God, salvation is God’s gracious rescue through Jesus—who justifies us as righteous, redeems us from our debt, and satisfies God’s justice—received by faith alone, not by our works. Romans 3:20-28. 1-25-26. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 39 Lost (pt 2 of Christianese: The Language Of Faith)

Being lost means living in sinful separation from God that we cannot fix ourselves, but through repentance and faith God the Father—like the father of the prodigal son—runs to restore, forgive, and joyfully welcome home anyone who turns back to Him. Luke 15:11–24. 1-18-26. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 38 Holy (pt 1 of “Christianese: The Language Of Faith”)

Holiness is no longer achieved through religious rituals, but experienced through a growing relationship with Jesus that transforms how we live as we trust in Him daily. Isaiah 40:25–31. 1-11-26. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 37 Paul’s Last Will And Testament

The Apostle Paul urges Timothy, and us, to faithfully run the God-given race of life with endurance and total surrender, keeping our eyes on Christ and the eternal crown of righteousness He promises to all who love His appearing. 2 Timothy 4:5-8. 1-4-26.

Ep. 36 The Gift Of Waiting (pt 4 of A Savior Is Born)

Christmas celebrates not only Christ’s first coming but also trains our hearts to wait faithfully and live on mission in hopeful expectation of His promised return as King. Revelation 1:7; Acts 1:9-11; Hebrews 9:28. 12-24-25. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com
