About this episode
Pastor Colin explores how a personal relationship with Jesus Christ provides hope and transformation in our lives.
How do we find hope through a relationship with God, specifically through Jesus Christ? Pastor Colin takes us through a marvellous verse from the New Testament, Colossians 1:27, which reveals that "Christ in you" is indeed the "hope of glory." If you've ever felt like hope is far away, this episode is for you. Join us as we explore what it truly means to have a personal relationship with Jesus, how it provides us an unparalleled hope, and the role of the Holy Spirit in our spiritual journey. Along the way, Pastor Colin shares insightful illustrations and scriptures that bring to life the importance of not just knowing about Jesus, but encountering Him personally, where He transforms us from the inside out.
