A Christian’s conduct and speech have a direct impact on non-believers who are watching and listening. How well do we reflect Christ? How much does our witness draw people to Jesus?

Slavery has unfortunately been common in many civilizations, including the Roman Empire during the first century A.D. But Paul gave instructions to both slaves and masters, elevating “bondservants” to equal status within the body of Christ. Then he used the same term “bondservant” to describe himself in his relationship with Jesus. The Bible encourages all of us to understand what it means to live a surrendered life to Jesus, our Master. Join Pastor Gary as he shares the historical and practical application of what it means to be a “bondservant of Jesus Christ.”

Although we exist on the horizontal (earth), the Bible encourages us to have our minds set on the vertical (heaven). Believers in Jesus are called to have an eternal perspective: to “put off” the old, sinful ways and to “put on” the new, godly traits of Christ. Among all the godly traits Paul tells us to “put on,” there is one trait that we are told to do as Christ has done for us. Pastor Gary shares about this one trait—among the other lessons of Colossians 3—in today’s study titled, “Vertical Living in a Horizontal World.”
