The book of Colossians has a lot to say about how the gospel should shape our chosen vocation. Over the next four days, we will look at a few key passages in this beloved book, unpacking how Paul’s words should impact the work we do each day.

While imprisoned in Rome, Paul warns believers to remain vigilant against false teaching by beautifully expounding on the cosmic Person of Christ. Jesus is “the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything He might be preeminent” (Colossians 1:18). In response to Christ’s preeminence, Paul commands his readers to “seek the things that are above where Christ is…and not on the things that are on earth” (Colossians 3:1-2).

In his letter to the church at Colossae, Paul encourages his readers to “live their lives in Christ, rooted and built up in him.” But what does this practically look like in the everyday moments of our lives? In this reading plan, we will look at how meditating on God’s word, serving the needs of others, and intercessory prayer play a role in helping you and me remain rooted in Christ.
