The first chapter of Colossians includes a prayer for the church (9-12) and a hymn (doxology) about the supremacy of Jesus (15-20). It is powerful to note that the prayer parallels the main points of the hymn, and is essentially a request to experience the fullness of life that can be found in the Supreme Jesus. In other words, the supremacy of Jesus isn’t just something we can know about, it is something that we can participate in.

Each of us spends our lives on a journey toward God. Yet often our most deeply felt longings - for meaning, for love, for significance - end up leading us away from, instead of toward, our Creator and the person he made us to be.

Church is not a building; it’s a body. Church is not a program; it’s a people. Church is not an event; it’s everybody on a everyday mission that includes every area of life. As the Westside family expands our “home,” we’ll remember that people are “the house of God.” It’s impossible to “go to Church” because we are the church.

21st Christianity is way messed up on its theology of trouble. We have come to believe that trouble means God is punishing us. Or that God is mad at us. Or that God has left us. Or that God plays favorites - and we are no longer on the good list!

God makes all things new! He continually does a new work in us. He continually makes us into a new creation. He shows us new truths and gives us new insights. He is the God of the new! If God is so good at new - why do our leaders, our vision and our methods all seem to become old? What if the Church is 8 years old. It has been based from the start on three questions: what if the church prayed together? what if the church served together? what if the church believed together? Every movement needs renewal from time to time. Learning how to embrace the new while hanging on the the principles we believe in is essential to every aspect of life. In Acts 16 - halfway through this book - this viral movement called the church takes on the new - with new prayer, new service and new boldness in sharing their faith.

We live in a world of conflict. Yet most of us are equipped only with the conflict skills we learned as a child from our parents. Jesus teaches a different way to handle conflict - and His followers must use and model it! He shows us how to move from rule based living to principle based living.
