What if Sundays were the starting line, not the finish? We take a hard, hopeful look at how faith moves beyond the sanctuary into homes, workplaces, and the public square, anchored by Paul’s call in Colossians 3 to set our minds above and live a new life below. The thread is simple: show up with the body, grow up in maturity, and get up to act with compassion, humility, and courage.

We begin by grounding change in the supremacy of Christ from Colossians 1—creator, sustainer, and head of the church—because real transformation can’t thrive on trends or vague spirituality. From there we unpack Paul’s practical list: put to death the old patterns that fracture souls and communities, then put on the character of Jesus. That means shedding anger, malice, and deceit, and clothing ourselves in kindness, patience, forgiveness, and love that binds everything together. It’s not behavior polish; it’s a Spirit-led life that lets the peace of Christ rule and the word of Christ dwell richly among us.

We then bring it close to home. The household code reframes leadership as love and mutual edification—husbands without harshness, wives with trust, parents who nurture without embittering, children who learn obedience that grows wisdom. Work becomes worship done unto the Lord. From there, we step into public witness with a story of Mr. Rogers quietly defying segregation by sharing a small pool with Officer Clemmons, showing how simple, faithful acts can speak louder than slogans. And we share a local moment—a hungry boy who saw a light on and found a meal—because availability might be the most underrated ministry of all.
