"A Bigger Jesus" (Col 1:15-20)

We're all prone to have a shrinking Jesus; that's why our anxieties, insecurities, restlessness, and hyper-activity are always in the background. God knows this. Paul knows it. That's why he wrote the "Christ Hymn" in this letter. In it we see Jesus as he is--supreme, sufficient, and seeable.

"What Our Prayers Reveal" (Col 1:9-14)

Our prayers are where our hearts express their deepest perceived needs. It's the same with Paul's prayer for the Colossians in the early part of his letter. His prayer reminds us of what we need, who we are, who God is, and where he's put us.

"Why RUF Is Here" (Col 1:1-8)

The Gospel is the demonstration and reality that God is one who meets us where we are with all of himself and all of his resources... while never leaving us stuck there. At RUF, all we're trying to do is love others in the ways we've first been loved by God. That's why we're aiming to be a community of redeemed sinners who meet each other where we are while never leaving anyone stuck there.
