Colossians 1:1-2 / David VanAcker

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 To the saints and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.

The big idea of this sermon—which is the big idea of Colossians as a whole—is that the unlimited number of “Christ and” approaches to life are always eternally deadly, while the “Christ over all” approach is the only path to eternal life. The main takeaways are to do everything you can to take in all the messages on Colossians and to begin taking inventory of the “ands” in your life.
