What does it mean to "put on" or "clothe yourself" with the character of Christ? In this series, we journey through Colossians 3:12-17, exploring Paul's vision of a life transformed by compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, patience, bearing with one another, forgiveness, love, peace, and gratitude. Far more than moral ideals, these virtues are the very character of Jesus being formed in his people through the Holy Spirit. Join us today as we look at the virtue of love, and how the ancient words of hesed and agape can reshape our relationships, our churches, and our everyday life.

Christian faith doesn't happen in a flash it is a journey.  Just as the Israelites journeyed in the wilderness Paul encourages us to continue to allow our faith to grow.  Unlike the Israelites though, he asks us to grow without the crumbling.

The Christian Life is meant to be lived in unity not uniformity.  We all have different backgrounds, different personalities and come from different environments.  We are not the same.  But we have the same God and living in Him brings us all together not apart.  That is the unifying purpose He has brought us to.  Let us rejoice!
