A Grace Filled Community Colossians 4:7-18
Big Idea: Following Jesus and being the church is a team sport!
The Gospel doesn’t just save people, it creates a community.
As the church, we are called to be part of a grace-filled Gospel community:
1. True gospel community encourages one another (vs 7-9). Kingdom impact happens behind the scenes. (Philemon 1:10) Encouragement is oxygen. The Gospel doesn’t just change your eternity, it changes your identity. (2 Cor 5:15,17). Jesus doesn’t cancel people, He transforms them.
2. True Gospel community is diverse but unified (vs 10-14). The Church is built on Christ-centered unity within God-designed diversity. (Gal 3:28).
3. True Gospel community finishes the mission together (vs 15-18). Complete the mission God has given you. We are saved to serve others.
Who am I encouraging? Who am I serving alongside? What is my part in the mission?
