This is the audio (32:05; 22.0 MB) of a Sunday sermon I preached at Redeemer Presbyterian Church (EPC) in Erie, PA, on June 1, 2025. The main text was Colossians 2:8–15. Other texts included Deuteronomy 29:10–19 and Acts 14:8–18.

This sermon is part of a series on the Book of Ephesians. This was a bit of a detour from Ephesians, as I explain, because I had already preached from Ephesians 3:1–13 in my early weeks at this congregation last year. So I used Ephesians 3:10 and Colossians 2 as a jumping-off point to talk about spiritual warfare and the health of our congregation. The other texts I made reference to are: Gen 3; 6:1–4; 11:1–9; 12:1–3; Isa 6:1–10; Ezek 1; Deut 4:19–20; 29:16; 32:8–9; Job 1, Pss 82; 86; 89; Zech 3; 1 Kgs 22:13–23; 1 Cor 10:14–22; Num 23:13, 27; 1 Kgs 20:23–8; Josh 24:14–15; Ezek 20:1–44; Rom 1:18–32; Titus 1:12–13.
