Rooted Relationships


Listen Later

Today’s episode explores how the book of Colossians shapes our relationships — not just our inner lives. Through a personal story, Scripture, and pastoral reflection, Lexie invites listeners to consider how Christ’s peace, wisdom, and love guide the way we relate to others.

Drawing from Colossians 3:18–25, along with insights from Lysa TerKeurst and Dr. Henry Cloud, this episode offers a grounded look at boundaries, forgiveness, and what it means to walk in love without striving or control.

You’ll also be guided through a reflective journaling practice and a closing prayer to help you carry these truths into your everyday relationships.


In This Episode, You’ll Explore:

  • How Colossians forms the way we love and relate to others
  • A metaphor from walking Milo that reveals our tendency to pull and control
  • What healthy boundaries protect — and why they matter
  • The role of peace in guiding difficult conversations and conflict
  • Reflection questions to help you bring Christ’s lordship into your relationships


Reflection Questions:

  • Where do you need to bring Christ’s lordship into your relationships right now?
  • What rhythm of prayer or presence could help you walk wisely toward others?
  • Who is walking with you in faith, and how can you encourage them this week?
  • What would it look like to fulfill the ministry you’ve received from the Lord in your everyday relationships?
