Greater Things
October 12 – November 23, 2025
We all want to grow in our faith, but real growth is more than appearances or routines. In his letter to the Colossians, Paul points us to something greater: true maturity found in Christ. Overseven weeks, we’ll explore this letter together and discover that Jesus is enough and that God has greater things in store for us.
