It's a new year. You're welcome if you didn't know ;) But in all seriousness, January is when we are flooded with ideas of NEW; "new year new you", new diets, new trends, new beginnings, new classes, new plans, even a new decade!

COLOSSIANS 3:9-11 'Don’t lie to each other, for you have stripped off your old sinful nature and all its wicked deeds. Put on your new nature, and be renewed as you learn to know your Creator and become like him. In this new life, it doesn’t matter if you are a Jew or a Gentile, ci
