Colossians 4:2–6 John 9:1–7, 24–34

This message, “Pass the Past,” invites us to prepare our hearts for the holiday season by seeing family gatherings as God-given doors to share Christ’s love—not landmines of old hurts and labels. Walking through Colossians 4 and John 9, Pastor Andy shows how Jesus meets “blind beggars” like us, transforms our lives, and calls us to extend that same grace to others rather than keeping them in the past. If you’ve ever dreaded seeing certain relatives, struggled to forgive, or felt trapped by who you used to be, this sermon will help you see the bigger picture, guard your heart, and step into Thanksgiving and Christmas with prayerful thankfulness, freedom, and hope.
