False Teachers and a Runaway Slave
Two crises in Colosse compel the Apostle Paul to write to the believers there, sharing his wisdom while in prison. First, Paul responds to false teachers who were belittling Christ, laying down rules, and boasting of secret knowledge. Then, Paul appeals to an individual believer, challenging him to imitate Christ by showing mercy to his slave who had run away. Paul’s two letters exalt Christ and affirm a truly Christian life, and they remain foundational for understanding Christ and His work in us.

Detailed study of scripture
This Bible study approaches the books of Colossians and Philemon with great detail. It looks at the Scriptures from multiple angles and gives the reader an in-depth look at God‘s word. This study aid is useful for individuals and small groups who want to understand what God is teaching us through the Scriptures.

This is another book we completed in our Sunday School class. We had some good discussion over a period of several weeks and it was profitable for all of us in our Christian walk with Christ…

I love these LifeChange guides. They really help me break down and think about the Word.
I spent a lot of time in Colossians 3 and I love the connection between Colossians and Philemon.

All of the books in this series are solid theologically and ask good questions. Its the best single series I've personally used for introducing a book along with its purpose and who it was written to (if its an epistle) and why it was written. Very good stuff.
