Colossians 3 urges us in...’whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.’ How do we view our work lives in light of our calling as Christians. Do we work to live, or live to work? Do we recognize the influence we have through our work life? Do we understand our call to serve as if we are serving Jesus himself?

We become our habits. Like someone suffering from heart disease, arteries don’t get clogged from eating one fatty meal. They build up in minute deposits over time from all the many choices we make throughout life. Our spiritual lives get clogged when we choose other things over & above intimacy & vitality with Jesus. There’s an individual & corporate call to care for our inner lives, to help our community become like Jesus! A call to commit ourselves to a daily rhythm of Morning Prayer, Scripture Reading, Frequent Prayer, Evening Prayer, and a Daily Examen which could change everything. New habits mean a new you, and new a you means a new community!

Today Paul gives us 5 healthy imperatives to deal with the pressures of conflict & culture, which if practiced well, these imperatives will guard our hearts & minds, and preserve the unity of the Church!

Paul gets intense, but what is so important? As we study this vital passage, we’ll see, there’s no compromise in the gospel message & it must be guarded in its purity.
