About this listen

 Are you tired of compromising your faith to keep up with earthly pressures? In this vital message based on Colossians 3:1-10, Pastor Leonce shows us how to escape the exhausting cycle of compromise by changing our spiritual focus. We often undermine the new life Christ gave us by allowing old habits—like seeking status, explosive anger, or covetousness—to rule our minds. Paul's blueprint for the Christian life moves from Identity to Action to Purpose. In this sermon, you will learn:
  • The Foundation: Why true security isn't found in a job, a title, or a bank account, but in realizing your life is hidden with Christ in God (v. 3-4).
  • The Conflict: The radical action required to "put to death" the earthly self (v. 5), including the sin of covetousness, which is idolatry.
  • The Purpose: How the Holy Spirit continuously renews your mind through knowledge, restoring you to the glorious image of your Creator (v. 10).
Holiness is not a burden; it is the freedom to live out your true, secure identity in Christ. Watch to find out how to stop wearing the "old uniform" and start setting your mind on things above! Sermon Scriptures Referenced:
  • Colossians 3:1-10
  • Romans 10:9
