Episode Synopsis
“Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am filling up what is lacking in Christ’s afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church” —Colossians 1:24.There are a number of confusing elements in this verse...Rejoicing in suffering?Filling up what is lacking in Christ?Doing this for the sake of the church?We would argue that what can seem like a challenging, confusing verse can have a clear, helpful, applicable point for us today.In this episode, we work through Colossians 1:24 and ask ourselves, "Is Christ sufficient enough for me that I am willing to suffer to portray His beauty to others?"
