Ep. 15 Connected In Growth (pt 3 of The Ties That Bind)

In part 3 of our series, "Connected In Growth," we explore the simple truth that we build God’s church by encouraging and equipping every church member to grow into maturity in Christ. Ephesians 4:11-16. 8-3-25. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 14 Connected In Unity (pt 2 of The Ties That Bind)

In Ephesians 4:1-6, Paul describes unity as something precious and presents the church with the character for unity, the commitment to unity, and the core of unity. Unity is something given by the Holy Spirit, but staying unified takes work! 7-27-25. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 13 Connected In Christ (pt 1 of The Ties That Bind)

Through Christ, we are brought near to God, brought into Christ’s family, the Church, and built together as one spiritual family as we’re brought into alignment with the Cornerstone. Ephesians 2:17–22. 7-20-25. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 12 The Light At The End (pt 5 of Living In The Light)

As God’s children, we proclaim Jesus, obey God’s commands, and love another—all while treasuring the fact that He always listens. These fundamental Christian truths are at the heart of 1 John 5:1-15. 7-13-25. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 11 The Light Of God’s Love (pt 4 of Living In The Light)

In 1 John 4, the Apostle shows us love initiated: God loved us and sent Jesus; and love imitated: Because God loves, we love. Big Idea: God’s love is seen when we love others the way He has loved us. 1 John 4:7-13,19-21. 7-6-25. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 10 Living As Children Of Light (pt 3 of Living in the Light)

In part 3 of this series, John shows us three reasons we walk in the light: God the Father loves us; God the Son died for us; God the Spirit lives in us. Big Idea: Children of the light are called to reflect God’s love and righteousness by turning away from sin and genuinely loving others. 6-29-25.

Ep. 9 Loving The Light Vs. Loving The World (pt 2 of Living In The Light)

We show that we love the light, and not the world, by choosing to daily honor Jesus with our words, actions, and attitude. That’s the big idea from this study in 1 John 2. John would have us Proclaim Jesus, Obey Jesus, Love Like Jesus. 1 John 2:1-11, 15-17. 6-22-25. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 8 Walking In The Light (pt 1 of Living In The Light)

Even when the darkness threatens to overwhelm, light is available. That light is Jesus, the light of the world (John 8:12). Big Idea: Life in the light is grounded in God’s truth, lived in community, marked by joy, demonstrated in purity, and secured by Christ. 1 John 1:1-2:2. 6-15-25. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 7 Victory For All (pt 7 of Victorious)

In Luke 24 we discover three fundamental truths about Jesus: God’s Scripture is all about Jesus; God’s salvation is found in Jesus; and God’s saints are sent by Jesus. Big Idea: The victory we have in Jesus is way too big to keep to ourselves. Luke 24:44-49. 6-8-25. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com

Ep. 6 Victorious Over Fear (pt 6 of Victorious)

In Romans 8 Paul masterfully lays out his argument why for those who are in Christ—despite life’s struggles—there is no desperation, no condemnation, and no separation. Big Idea: Believers have no reason to fear separation from God and His love. Romans 8:31-39. 6-1-25. Colonial Church in Wichita Falls. www.colonialchurch.com
