Episode Synopsis

Are you ready to see life through grace-tinted glasses? Discussion Questions for Colossians 3: Read verses 1-2. What does it mean to "seek the things above"? How can this perspective change the way we view our lives? Read verse 3. How does the truth that "your life is hidden with Christ in God" provide security and shape your identity? Read verse 4 and react to this statement: Christ is my life. Now, what does it mean to you that you will be “revealed with Him in glory”? Read verses 5-7. How do you consider the members of your body as dead to sin? And how does this “match” the truth about you as a person? Read verses 8-9. How do your choices to put aside anger, slander, and lying reflect the reality of your new self? Read verses 10-11. What kind of renewal is happening now that you are already the new self? What does "no distinction” in this verse mean to you? Read verses 12-14. In practical terms, how do you “put on” a heart of compassion? Why is love highlighted “beyond all these things”? How does verse 13 express the opposite of what we see in the Lord’s Prayer (see Matthew 6:14-15)? Why is this the case?
