What if the sins and failures you’re still carrying have already been nailed to the cross?

In this episode of The Narrow Trail, we continue through Colossians 2:11–14 and unpack what it means to be made alive with Christ.

We talk about the “circumcision made without hands,” the ongoing battle between the flesh and the Spirit, why struggling with sin is different from living comfortably in it, and why our salvation can never depend on our own performance.

We also share a personal story about a simple fast that exposed just how desperately we need Jesus. If salvation were 99% Jesus and 1% us, we’d fail in the 1% every single time.

But Scripture doesn’t say Jesus reduced our debt to something we could eventually pay off.

He canceled it.

He took the record that stood against us and nailed it to the cross.

So if Christ has already dealt with your past, why are you still allowing it to define you?

Your failures don’t get the final word.

Jesus does.

Keep walking with us on The Narrow Trail.

The guys are finally back! After a long break, a few work trips, and a brand-new studio, Cameron and Hunter jump right back into Colossians 2.

This episode gets personal as the guys talk about comfort, evangelism, the power of the Holy Spirit, and the responsibility we have to actually step out and use what God has given us. Cameron also shares a moment that seriously convicted him about whether we're really being the church for the people who need Jesus—or just the people we’re comfortable being around.

Then they dive into Colossians 2:8-15 and Paul's warning about human philosophy, traditions, and teachings that can sound right while pulling us away from Christ. The guys talk about why Christ has to be the standard we measure everything against—and why even something that sounds biblical should still be tested against Scripture.

And maybe the biggest lesson of the episode: you don't have to know everything before you can tell someone about Jesus. You don't need more knowledge—you need more of Christ.

The guys are back, the studio is finally done, and they're jumping straight into the deep end. Come walk with them on The Narrow Trail.

What keeps a Christian from being deceived?

The guys continue through Colossians 2 and unpack Paul's warning about false teaching, empty philosophies, and arguments that sound convincing but pull people away from Christ. They talk about what it means to be rooted in Jesus, why our prayer life should reflect God's priorities instead of our own, and how even everyday worries like money can reveal where we're placing our trust.

The conversation also dives into having a burden for the lost, praying for believers we've never met, and why building your life on Christ is like building a solid foundation—when He's the foundation, everything else has a place to stand.

If you've ever struggled with worry, questioned how to recognize false teaching, or wondered what it really means to grow in your faith, this episode will encourage you to keep your eyes fixed on Christ and continue walking the narrow trail.
