What Reconciled People Do: Colossians 4:7-18

Welcome to the final week of our Colossians series! Today, we're diving into Colossians 4:7-18, exploring the redemptive story of Onesimus, a runaway slave who becomes a faithful servant. This narrative serves as a powerful reminder that we are called to be reconciled with God and others, emphasizing the truth that no past is more powerful than God's forgiveness. David Marvin challenged us to reflect on our relationships, prompting us to consider the question, "Is there someone we need to forgive?"

A People of Prayer Who Share: Colossians 4:2–6

The passage also discusses the significance of sharing the gospel with outsiders, urging us to approach conversations with wisdom, grace, and a genuine desire to connect others with the love of Christ. Let's take steps to prioritize intimacy with Jesus through prayer and to actively seek opportunities to share the gospel with those around us!

Don't Settle For Less: Colossians 3:18–4:1

Welcome to week eight of our Colossians series! This week we're in Colossians 3:18–4:1, and it's all about the "house rules" as followers of Christ. It's like a guidebook for living well. We're going to see how spouses, parents, and workers are supposed to live in light of being Christ-followers.

The main idea is that we should treat everyone with care and kindness, whether we're at home or work. The Bible says we should love each other and work hard, not just for rewards here on Earth, but to please God. So, let's remember to be kind and loving in everything we do, whether it's at home with our families or at work with our co-workers!
