Week 1: The Supremacy of Christ, Colossians 1:1–2:5
While imprisoned in Rome awaiting trial before Caesar, Paul wrote to the believers in Colossae, a group he had never met but who respected his authority. His coworker Epaphras, a native of Colossae, had brought the gospel there and to nearby Laodicea and Hierapolis after working with Paul in Ephesus. When Epaphras was later imprisoned in Rome, he told Paul about the situation in those cities.
The mostly Gentile Colossians were being pressured to follow Jewish laws and drawn into false teachings that emphasized visions and secret knowledge. In response, Paul reminded them that Jesus is all they need: all creation was made through Him, and through His death all things are reconciled to God. Christ fully embodies God’s nature, and believers, now part of His kingdom of light, are called to live out their new life and await His glorious return.

Week 2: Trust Me and Multiply, Genesis 15:1-21
We will look at the life of Abraham, a man who gives us a picture of how God wants to use all of us in the world. Abraham believed God for the impossible, and as a result, God multiplied his life. God wants to multiply our lives, too, but that journey begins when we take our hands off of everything we own and love and trust in him and venture into the unknown.
