What if the biggest problem in your life isn't the people around you… but who's sitting on the throne of your heart? This week's message from Colossians 3 dives into one of the most misunderstood and misused parts of Scripture - household codes. But what if they're not about control or power? What if they're actually about freedom, love, and surrender?In a world chasing status and authority, Jesus flips the script. He doesn't call us to rule over one another - He calls us to serve.

So many of us live like God's love depends on us—on our performance, our knowledge, or our good works. In this powerful message from Colossians 2, we're reminded that the only equation that brings us confidence, peace, and salvation is this: Jesus + Nothing = Everything. You don't need to strive for acceptance or add anything to what Jesus has already done on the cross. He's fully God, fully man, and has completely cancelled your debt.
