Pastor Kurt takes a deep dive in Colossians 1:24-29 detailing how Paul rejoices in his suffering, knowing that his pain serves the purpose of building Christ’s church. Ministry isn’t about comfort, it’s about commitment, sacrifice, and service for the sake of others. He then reminds the church that the goal of all ministry is to present everyone mature in Christ. That mission fuels Paul’s preaching, teaching, and labor, empowered by the very strength of Christ working within him.
