from Grow In Faith · host Christ Church IL

Welcome to Day 1 of our brand-new devotional journey through Colossians chapter 1 — one of the most theologically rich passages in the entire New Testament. We're going slow, digging deep, and discovering why this short letter from the Apostle Paul still speaks powerfully into our lives today.In this opening devotional, we unpack Colossians 1:1-8 and explore:→ Why Paul wrote this "occasional letter" to the church in Colossae → The fascinating backstory of Epaphras — the unlikely church planter who carried the gospel home → How faith, hope, and love are woven together from the very first verses → Why the problems facing the early church might feel surprisingly familiar today → The beautiful truth that the gospel is still "bearing fruit and growing throughout the whole world"As John Calvin reminded us, to move forward in life we must truly know God — not just know about Him, but know Him personally through Jesus Christ. This chapter is a celebration of Christ, and we can't wait to walk through it with you.📖 Scripture Focus: Colossians 1:1-8 🎯 Series: Colossians Chapter 1 Devotional ⏭️ Next Up: We continue unpacking Paul's greeting and the foundation of gospel-centered faithSubscribe and turn on notifications so you don't miss a single devotional as we journey through this incredible chapter together.
