    Vision, Part 1: What and Why

    To quote Pastor Andy Stanley, vision is a clear mental picture of what could be, fueled by the conviction of what should be. But what makes vision distinctly Christian is that God is at the center of it. A God-ordained vision starts as a burden stirred up by God, eventually feels like a moral imperative given by God, and is always in alignment with God's Kingdom purposes. The reason why cultivating such vision is so important is because vision provides direction for life, protection against burnout, and motivation to make sacrifices.

    Final Exhortations | Colossians 4:2-18

    Paul gives his final instructions and exhortations for this growing church. He enourages them to endeavor in prayer and to walk in wisdom. Lastly, he emphasizes the importance of community and teamwork as he recognizes his friends and partners in ministry.

    Working for the Lord | Colossians 3:22-4:1

    The Apostle Paul wraps up his section on how the Gospel shapes households by addressing slaves and masters. In doing so, Paul is not endorsing the institution of slavery, but instructing Christians on how to faithfully operate within that pre-existing system while also subtly undermining the entire system itself. Through this passage, we see that regardless of our specific jobs, we are all ultimately working for the Lord. As such, we should work with integrity, excellence, and perseverance.

    The Gospel-Shaped Family | Colossians 3:18-21

    The Apostle Paul addresses how Christians are to live and relate to others in the context of their own households. While we are made new in Christ and brought into a new spiritual family, that doesn't mean we ignore or reject our natural families. Rather, the Gospel is to deeply shape how Christians are to relate to one another in the home, especially as husbands/wives and children/parents. The relationships in our households are to be marked by a mutual love and service for one another, all under the lordship of Christ.

    Put on the New Self | Colossians 3:12-17

    After instructing the Colossians to put off the old self, the Apostle Paul now instructs them to put on the new self in Christ. Putting on the new self involves having the peace of Christ rule among your relationships, having the word of Christ richly dwell within your heart and mind, and having the name of Christ be glorified through your life. Rather than being a burdensome obligation, putting on the new self in Christ is our great privilege and joy.

    Off with the old | Colossians 3:1-11

    After addressing the false teachings and pointing them to the centrality of Christ, he now lays out on how they may walk and live worthy of His calling. He exhorts them to put off the old self now that they have been united as one under God's salvation. He reminds them of that old life in which God has delivered them from and encourages them to put to death any and all vestiges of that old self. In order to do this, he instructs them to set their minds on things above and to fix their eyes upon Christ.

    Rooted in Christ | Colossians 2:6-23

    Paul directly addresses the false teaching that was spreading in Colossae, which had elements of legalism, mysticism, and asceticism. We face our own contemporary parallels that seek to draw us away from Christ. But by being rooted in Christ, we find true redemption, true spiritual maturity, and true strength to battle our flesh.

    Suffering as Ministers of the Gospel | Colossians 1:24-2:5

    Paul shares about the suffering he has and is going through as a minister of the Gospel. However, he surprisingly says that he rejoices over his sufferings and that is because his sufferings reveal the mystery of the Gospel to others, help others mature in Christ, and help guard against false teachings. An unavoidable aspect of Gospel ministry is suffering. But we can joyfully embrace hardships, sacrifices, and inconveniences because God is at work through those things to make Christ known.
