The Incomparable Christ
This week, Seth Williams will preach a message titled "The Incomparable Christ" (Colossians 1:15-23). In a world filled with uncertainty, fear, and competing voices, we need a broader view of Jesus — the One who created all things, sustains all things, and reconciles all things to God through His blood on the cross. Paul lifts our eyes to see the supremacy and sufficiency of Christ so that we would worship Him with awe and trust Him with our lives. Join us this Sunday as we behold the incomparable glory of Jesus and find fresh confidence in the One who holds all things together.
