Colossians proclaims a bold and life-giving truth: in Christ, we are not merely forgiven—we are made fully alive. This series explores how the supremacy of Christ leads to spiritual fullness, freedom from false substitutes, and transformed daily living. From the cosmic reign of Jesus to ordinary acts of faithfulness, Colossians shows us what it means to live fully alive in Christ.
- Week 1 (April 12, 2026) — Fully Alive by the Gospel (Colossians 1:1–14). The gospel does more than rescue us from sin—it produces fruit, endurance, and joyful gratitude. To be fully alive is to live from the hope the gospel creates.

- Week 5 (May 10, 2026) —Fully Alive in New Life (Colossians 3:1–11). Resurrection life reshapes desires, habits, and identity. To be fully alive is to put off the old self and life from our new reality in Christ.
