Colossians Arm Chair Chat # 1 - Behind the Scenes of the Letter

In the maiden voyage of our arm chair chat series I'm joined by Ps David Keane to discuss some of the behind the scenes of the letter. We discuss how competing ideas, culture and philosophy placed internal and external pressures on the church to exchange the amazing nature of the Gospel and the all surpassing greatness of Christ for new mysterious teachings, legalism, social acceptance or idolatry. We also look at how these very same things affect us today and our own shining of the Light of the Gospel from where we are too. It's a wide ranging meander through history, philosophy, theology, biblical studies and Church culture. You might find some interest in the way the book speaks to us today!
