Living in Another World
Walking with Christ begins by realizing that we live life in two different realms. We are too often focused on living life by strict rules in the realm of earth, ignoring the fact that our connection to Christ introduces us to the realm of His kingdom. This is where our energies should be focused. Living in this realm means less of a focus on restrictive rules to protect us from the realm of earth and more striving to engage with God's kingdom. As we do this, we will find that our engagement with the world deepens in meaningful ways, which are detailed as Colossians continues.
Scripture References: Colossians 3:1-4, Colossians 2:16-23
From Series: "Walking in the Mystery"
As we continue the series in Colossians, we see the practical application of what it means to worship the cosmic and yet personal Christ that was introduced in the first section. This section takes the mystery of who Christ is and applies it to the lives of a community of faith. Instead of pursuing some other kind of mystery, they are called to dive into the mystery of Christ and watch how it transforms every aspect of their lives. There are particular applications to community life, legalism, character, family, professional life, religious expression, and more. This is the beauty of life with Christ: we worship a cosmic Christ who is far outside the realm of our normal lives and yet that very worship completely transforms the day to day life that we live in this world.

Advanced Sermon Catalog
Enter search parameters to narrow the sermon list appearing below. Scroll to the bottom of the page for additional search tips.
Tips
- Enter multiple search parameters to narrow the list to sermons matching all of them. For example, choose
- Book: Psalms
- Speaker: Stedman, Ray
to see sermons by Ray Stedman that also have a specific reference in the Psalms.
- Click on the Clear Filters button to see the whole list again. If you are getting no results, make sure that you don’t have an unintended filter parameter or search term remaining in place.
- Click on a column title to sort the list by that column. Click a second time to reverse the sort order. By default the list is ordered from newest to oldest (reverse chronological).
- The Book filter will not find every sermon that touches on a particular book
- it cannot find sermons where the book name does not appear in the Scripture References column, e.g. filtering on Luke does not find a sermon with references of “Matthew – Revelation”.
- Scripture References in the catalog are not complete for all sermons for various reasons
- If you are exploring the library by Date, note that the date selector has unfortunate limitations:
- Typed in dates must be in the format shown in the sermon list: 20 Jan 2019. Other formats such as 1/20/19 do not work.
- In the calendar browser that pops up, you can click on the month/year at the top to move by larger periods of time. For example, if “JANUARY 2019” is displayed and you click on it you can choose months in 2019, click again and you can navigate through years.
- Typed in dates will sometimes be misinterpreted and replaced: try editing the replacement text into your desired date rather than clearing the field and starting over.
- The Search field only searches the catalog list of sermons displayed on this page. Unfortunately we do not have the capability to search the text of sermons at this time.
