Winning the War Within | Jesus is Enough | Week 4
from Open Door Church Official Podcast
What does it actually look like to live differently because of Jesus? In this message from the Jesus Is Enough series, Lead Pastor Stephen Mizell walks through Colossians 3 and challenges us to recognize that following Jesus isn't just about where we're going someday. Jesus wants to change how we live today. Our thoughts, desires, emotions, relationships, and habits all matter. Paul gives us a practical picture of what it means to live from our new identity in Christ: set our minds on Christ, put to death the things that are destroying us, put on the character of Jesus, and let His peace rule in our lives. Christian maturity isn't just about what we stop doing. It's about becoming more like Jesus. In this message: • Why what we focus on matters • The difference between being changed by Christ and trying to earn God's approval • What it means to "put to death" the things that don't belong in our new life • Putting on mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, patience, forgiveness, and love • Why Christian maturity is about becoming more like Jesus • How community and gratitude help us live differently • Learning to live from our new identity in Christ Scripture: Colossians 3:1–17, Philippians 4:8, 2 Corinthians 10:12 Lead Pastor Stephen Mizell Open Door Church Edenton, NC
