Episode 158 (Colossians 1)

from Rooted · host Drew Tankersley

In this episode of Rooted, we dive into Colossians 1 and uncover what it really means for Jesus to be first in our lives. From a prison cell, Paul reminds us that Christ isn’t just a part of our faith—He is the one who created all things, holds all things together, and lives within us as our only source of strength and hope. This episode challenges you to move beyond simply knowing about Jesus to fully surrendering to Him, trusting that the same Savior who sustains the universe is more than able to sustain your life. If you’ve ever felt like things are unraveling or you’re carrying more than you were meant to, this conversation will point you back to the truth: you don’t have to hold it all together—He already is.
