Ever feel like you’re doing your best, but something deeper still feels off? Like there’s a weight you can’t quite shake or a pull back to patterns you thought you’d left behind? We all have moments where we wonder if real change is possible.
This message from Colossians 1:13–14 unpacks the powerful truth that we don’t have to rescue ourselves. Jesus has already done it. Through his own river rescue story, Pastor Matt shows how Christ pulls us from the darkness we can’t escape on our own and transfers us into something brand new—a kingdom life marked by redemption and transformation.
Whether you’re exploring faith or need a reminder of what’s true, these two verses offer both comfort and challenge: if you’ve trusted Christ as your Savior, you belong to a new kingdom now, and you don’t have to go back to what once held you captive.
