Rooted In Christ (Colossians 2:6-7)

Summary

The sermon focuses on being rooted in Christ for the new year, introducing a church-wide initiative to deeply engage with Scripture through a structured reading plan covering the Gospels. Using Colossians 2:6-7 as the key text, the pastor emphasizes that being rooted in Christ is not about personal effort, but about allowing Christ to work in and through believers, drawing a metaphor from an ancient tree's resilient root system. The practical takeaway is an invitation for the congregation to intentionally study the life of Jesus through a weekly reading plan, discussing Scripture in small groups, and allowing God's Word to transform their lives by focusing on what they learn about Jesus and how they can apply those insights.
