Colossians 1

‘slow your roll’…that’s what I hear this morning…:)

Msg. vs. 15-18 We look at this Son and see the God who cannot be seen. We look at this Son and see God's original purpose in everything created. For everything, absolutely everything, above and below, visible and invisible, rank after rank after rank of angels—everything got started in him and finds its purpose in him. He was there before any of it came into existence and holds it all together right up to this moment. And when it comes to the church, he organizes and holds it together, like a head does a body.

"Here is God's leadership model: He chooses fools to live foolishly in order to reveal the economy of heaven, which reverses and inverts the wisdom of this world. He calls us to brokeness, not performance; to relationships, not commotion; to grace, not success."- Leading with a Limp (p.55) by Dan B. Allender, PhD
