Christchurch Miami opens a brand-new series — GREATER THAN, a study through Colossians — with guest teacher Jay Reynardus, who led Bible Study Fellowship in Miami for over 20 years. He begins exactly where Paul begins: by taking our eyes off the little man or woman in the mirror and fixing them on Christ. Jay is refreshingly honest about himself — the longer he walks with the Lord, the more he sees his own faithlessness and misplaced hopes: 'Apart from God reaching in and pulling me out, I would be utterly lost.' From verses 3–8, Paul names the three marks of everyone God has claimed — faith, hope, and love — and every one of them is a gift. 'If we have faith, it's because of God. If we have love, it's because of God. If we have a living hope, it's because of God.' Then in verses 9–14 Paul prays, packing the whole rescue into a handful of past-tense verbs: God has qualified you, delivered you from the domain of darkness, transferred you into the kingdom of His Son, redeemed you, and forgiven you. When we finally see all He has done, the little loves and little hopes of this world are revealed for what they are. As Jay put it: 'He reached into the darkness where you lived and pulled you out when you were His enemy.' It's Him. It's always Him. It will always be Him.
