#26 - How to Kill What's Killing you

November 12, 2025

How to Kill What’s Killing You
(Colossians 3 – The Battle Against the Old Self)

Sin isn’t something to manage — it’s something to kill.

In this episode of The Sunday Rewind, Pastors Joel and Brandon unpack Paul’s call in Colossians 3 to “put to death what is earthly in you.” They talk about why true victory over sin begins with understanding who you are in Christ, how the Holy Spirit empowers daily transformation, and what it really means to “hate” your own sin without falling into guilt or legalism.

In this conversation:
Baptism as a picture of death, burial, and resurrection
Why your position in Christ fuels your practice
The difference between behavior change and heart change
Four practical ways to “put sin to death” every day
How grace—not guilt—produces holiness

If you’ve ever felt stuck in the same spiritual battles, this episode will help you see how the gospel frees you to fight sin from victory, not for it.
