In this message from Colossians 3, we explore the danger of building your identity on things that can fade—success, relationships, status—and the emptiness that follows when Jesus is only added in when it’s convenient.

Colossians 3 walks through four movements of real transformation: letting the old life die, removing what doesn’t belong, putting on the character of Christ, and allowing Jesus to reshape every area of your life.

This isn’t about behavior management—it’s about heart transformation. If you’ve ever felt full but still empty, or like your faith is just one piece of your life instead of the foundation of it, this message will challenge you to rethink everything.

Because Jesus didn’t come to be added to your equation—He came to be your entire life.

In Luke13, Jesus tells the parable of The Barren Fig Tree that had everything it needed. It had time, resources, nutrients, and opportunity—but still produced nothing. Eventually the owner of the garden says, “Why should it keep wasting soil?”

It’s possible to be around spiritual things, attend church, read your Bible, and still not produce the kind of fruit God is looking for.

Exposure to truth is not the same as obedience to truth. Am I producing fruit or just taking up space?

Well, I had ChatGPT write "a letter from Paul to the modern church." It's comical, accurate, and thought-provoking. I plan to go through each section of this letter in future episodes—but until then—here's a dramatic reading of the letter and my initial thoughts.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your faith is evident outside of Sunday mornings, this message will challenge and encourage you to speak with grace, truth, and purpose.

Your words should be windows that reveal Jesus, not walls that conceal Him.

I was assigned the opening spot, "my God." It was a challenging, yet rewarding experience.

In this episode, I reflect on the biblical pattern we see in Moses, Isaiah, and others—people who weren’t always ready, confident, or qualified—but who made themselves available to God. Availability, not readiness, is often the posture God uses most.

This is a short devotional on what it means to live with open hands, to stop asking “Am I ready?” and start asking “Am I willing?”—and why God has never been limited by our readiness, but consistently works through our availability.
