Christ Above All
Colossians Series
In a world full of noise, shifting values, and competing priorities, there is One who stands above it all. His name is Jesus Christ — the visible image of the invisible God, the Creator and Sustainer of all things, the One before whom every knee will bow.
You are invited you to join us for a powerful series through the book of Colossians called Christ Above All. Together we will rediscover the beauty, power, and supremacy of Jesus and what it means for Him to have first place in everything. Each week, we’ll explore how Christ is above creation, above culture, above our struggles, above our relationships, and above our future.
We’ll learn how His presence within us is the hope of glory and how to root our lives in Him instead of empty substitutes. We will learn how His lordship shapes every part of who we are — from our homes and work to our prayers and witness.

Welcome to Mt Zion Church
-
The local church is the foreign embassy of the kingdom of God. This means that as God’s people, we are sometimes going to be called on to wade into the middle of the conflict to rescue the broken and the lost. Jesus left the 99 and went to find the one, not because he did not care for the 99, but because it was the one who was in danger.
-
The Bible teaches us that the Holy Spirit resides within every child of God. The membership of Mount Zion is the body of Christ in this place and as such they are entrusted to be the final authority in all church matters.
-
Three things:
First, we believe the pastor is a shepherd, bishop, and elder. The pastor’s calling is to feed, lead, and protect God’s flock, not to dictate or rule over God’s house.
Second, we are passionate about keeping out conflict, drama, judgmentalism, and contention. Our motto is: “In essentials agreement, in non-essentials liberty, in all things love.”
Third, we have communion every monty. Both juice and wine are offered. Wine, because that has been the practice of the church for 2000 years, and juice for those who have a conviction against the use of wine. All are encouraged to be true to their conscience and choose accordingly. No one should judge the choices of another. (See previous paragraph.)
