Colossians: Joy Inexpressible

A deep, substantial, ocean current of joy and thankfulness should predominate in every believers life... How to get there is not hard! Paul tells us how in Colossians.

1 Peter 1:3-9
Colossians 1:9-14
Romans 1:20-21
Philippians 3:1,4:4,4:6,4:10
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Ephesians 2:1-3
Nehemiah 8:10

Sermon discussion topics for parents to use with their children:

• How is Joy as the Bible describes it more substantial than how the world speaks of it?
• Where does a Christian's joy come from?
• What is the dominion of darkness?
• How were we qualified and transferred out of it?
• Why was the rescue mission deadly?
• How does knowing these realities impact people?

Acts: Avoiding Melt Downs

Sometimes great trials and setbacks actually pave the way for greater works of God. This was evident in Acts. As we watch Paul and Silas suffer and then bear lots of fruit, we will be taught how to not melt down in the rough times so we can see through and finally see how God used those times for much good in our lives and in others.

Acts 16
