Bible Talks from Colossians

Paul's final exhortation to the church in Colossae urges his readers to participate in God's mission to the world. He focusses on how we can participate in it through prayer and witnessing for Christ.

How do we work together with God in His work of saving lives through Jesus Christ? By praying for God to give us opportunities to bear witness to Christ and His work in our lives.

Work has always been a big part of life for people to provide for themselves and their families, but is there any value beyond the grave? Jesus may have saved our soul, but is there any value in the work we do now that we’ve been saved? The Apostle Paul answers this question as he shows us how Jesus redeems work.

It's not what you do but how you do it that matters. This is true in how we work in this age. And how we conduct relationships at work is critical as we glorify God.

After explaining how Jesus reigns in marriage, the Apostle Paul now gives the church a formula for how Fathers are to relate to their kids, and kids to their parents. A well ordered society begins at home, and so does a well-ordered life in Christ.
