Colossians 1:24-29: Christ-Centered Ministry: How Paul Lived Out Gospel Ministry
It’s been said that people are messy, ministry is people, therefore ministry is messy! It’s true. Ministry is messy, and it is also hard. In the Christian world, we often hear of the latest methods and fads about how to “best do ministry.” Paul kept it simple. He kept it Christ-centered. That’s what we want to do at Redeemer. If you were to open the chest of the Apostle Paul and see his heart you would find that it beat with a passionate love for Jesus Christ. This is what fueled his service, his ministry philosophy, and all he did for the progress of the gospel. Paul kept it Christ-centered. So should we.
In this text we see:
Four aspects of Christ-centered ministry and what it will involve …
- Christ-centered suffering [v24]
- Christ-centered service [vs25-27]
- Christ-centered proclamation [v28a]
- Christ-centered power [v28b-29]

Benediction & Direction into Spiritual Conversations
* For Spiritual Conversations – Share where you are currently serving and using your spiritual gifts for ministry or where you hope to. Process with a friend if there is anything that holds you back from whole-hearted Christ-centered ministry and service in the church.
