WEEKLY REFLECTIONS
1. Additional Study: Read through Colossians in a single sitting. What themes do you notice in the text? What seems to be the focus of the letter?
2. Why does Paul emphasize the name of Christ so much in this letter? What does this tell us about how we relate to one another?
3. Who is someone that has impacted your faith in a positive way? How did they impact you? Have you thanked them for their impact in your life?
4. How do you think people would speak about your faith in Christ? What would be the words they would use to describe your faith? What would you like them to see?
5. How often do you pray for your brothers and sisters in Christ? What do those prayers sound like? How can we learn from Paul’s example in Colossians 1 regarding prayer for each other?
