Jesus Only: Part One

DAY 2 OF 35

Week 1, Day 2 - Monday

For the next ten weeks, we’ll be doing an in-depth study of the book of Colossians. In order to set the framework for the study, today, we’re going to do a simple overview of the book as a whole. 

What is the book of Colossians? 

Colossians is a letter that Paul wrote (while in jail) to the believers in the Roman city of Colossae.

Where is Colossae?

The ancient city of Colossae was situated in modern-day Turkey. (It’s possible that your Bible has a map at the back showing its location. Check it out!)

What is the book about?

There are several themes in the book, but overall, Paul wrote to address a worldview that had crept into the church that wasn’t Biblical.

Reflection Questions:

As you read through Colossians today, reflect on the following:
What stands out to you about the letter?
What do you see in the letter that could be applied to your life today?
Is there anything confusing or unclear that you need to think about more?
