JOURNEY THROUGH THE NEW TESTAMENT: COLOSSIANS 1 & 2
April 6, 2026
DISCERN WHAT’S BEST: PHILIPPIANS & COLOSSIANS
This year, we are taking a journey through the New Testament. We are currently in the books of Philippians & Colossians. In these two books, we are looking at how Paul prays and shares how to discern what’s best.
RECAP
Today, we focused on Colossians 1 & 2. Paul prays that they might have wisdom and understanding. He shares about who Jesus is and who are in him. This is the basis for discernment because it shapes how we see everything in our lives.
BIBLE
Colossians 1:15-23, Colossians 2:6-16
QUESTIONS: Review Colossians 1 & 2
The Supremacy of Christ:
Colossians 1 highlights who Jesus is—creator, sustainer, and head of the church. How does your current view of Christ compare to this description, and how might a bigger understanding of Him change the way you live?
A Life Worthy of the Lord:
Paul prays that believers would live lives worthy of the Lord, bearing fruit in every good work. What does “living worthy” look like in your everyday actions, and where do you feel challenged to grow?
Rooted in Christ:
Paul urges believers to continue living in Christ, being “rooted and built up in Him.” What does it practically look like in your daily life to be rooted in Christ rather than in other influences or sources of identity?
