In this powerful and deeply personal message, Pastor Matt Ayars walks through Epistle to the Colossians—especially Colossians 1:18—reminding us of one life-changing truth: Jesus is the head of the Church.

This sermon flows from real moments of ministry—baptisms at Wellspring, a moving prison service, and a Spirit-led experience at a Salvation Army training college—where God showed up in unexpected ways. Through it all, one message becomes clear: we are not in control… and that’s actually good news.

When we’re exhausted, burdened, or unsure of what God is doing, we’re reminded:

You can’t—but He can.

This message is a call to:

  • Let go of control
  • Trust Jesus as the true leader of His Church
  • Follow where He leads—even when it’s unfamiliar
  • Say “yes” to the work of the Holy Spirit

“Get used to different.”

Whether you’re weary, searching, or sensing God is doing something new in your life, this sermon will encourage you to trust Him more deeply and follow Him more boldly.

🙏 Key Theme: Jesus sustains, leads, and transforms—He is enough.

📖 Scripture Focus: Colossians 1:15–20
