In a world filled with distractions, pressures, and the constant pull of materialism, it’s easy to lose sight of what truly matters. As believers, we are called to set our hearts and minds on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God, and not be consumed by the temporary things of this world.

But what does it mean to live with an eternal perspective? How do we practically focus our hearts on heavenly priorities in a world that demands our attention? In this sermon, we will explore Colossians 3:1-2, where the apostle Paul urges us to seek the things above, not on earthly things.

We will unpack what it looks like to realign our desires and pursuits with God’s kingdom, cultivating a heart that treasures eternal values over fleeting earthly comforts. By looking to Jesus as our ultimate example, we’ll discover how to live with a heart fully committed to God’s will, where our true identity and hope lie.

Join us as we examine how to shift our focus from the temporary to the eternal, how to guard our hearts against the allure of worldly distractions, and how to live out our faith with a mindset that reflects the hope we have in Christ.

Whether you’re struggling with worldly anxieties or simply seeking a deeper sense of purpose, this sermon will challenge you to re-center your heart on God’s unshakable promises and the eternal joys that await us in His presence.
