Colossians 1:1-14

Week 1 of our study on the book of Colossians covers 1:1-14. Paul begins his letter with a personal introduction and a prayer of thanksgiving and blessing for the church in Colossae. Paul's prayer helps us understand the good things we should strive for as individuals and as a church body, and it points us to the transforming grace of Jesus which God gave us at the cross.
