Sermon Notes
Date: 02/08/2026
Preacher: Josh Peglow, pastor
Series: Colossians
Key Text: Colossians 3:22 – 4:1
Description:
You belong to Christ.
Not in part.
Not in theory.
Not on Sundays.
But entirely.
And that allegiance reshapes everything —
even the places where authority,
work,
and power intersect.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast,
Pastor Josh Peglow continues our study in the book of Colossians,
where Paul addresses one of the most uncomfortable realities
in the ancient world:
Slaves.
And masters.
What do we do with passages like this?
Is the Bible endorsing slavery?
Is Paul simply accommodating the culture of his day?
Or is something deeper happening?
Paul doesn’t sidestep the tension.
He brings it under the Lordship of Christ.
Because if Jesus is truly Lord,
then no relationship stands outside His authority.
Not even this one.
