We are about to embark on a 4-part sermon series on the book of Colossians. We titled this series “Saturated” because the theme of Colossians is that Jesus saturates everything…. creation, our story, salvation. When something is saturated in liquid, it takes on those properties. Our hearts should be like a sponge, absorbing Jesus into every pore. But if you drop a hard, metal block into water, the metal block doesn’t absorb the water. All it will do is rust. When our hearts are hard, even when surrounded by Jesus, we will reject him and our conscience becomes seared. We want our hearts to be soft, ready to absorb all God wants for us.
