Three Minute Thoughts

Paul seeks to bring together a broken relationship.

The message of Paul's letter to the church in Colossians is all about how to live out the faith you claim with your words.

When we are in Christ and realize the power of the gospel in our lives, we'll quickly realize that what we used to be no longer works. So it's time to put on the new self.

Today's reading builds on the reality that Jesus is the fullness of God in human form. Let no one twist that view in your mind.

A new book brings new information about the God we already know. Want to know what God is like? Look to Jesus he's the only way we see him.

When we focus on the good in life the bad things will slowly fade to the background. That's why Paul reminds us to replace worry and anxiety with prayer and thanksgiving.

Paul reminds us that not everyone who says they're for us really are for us. Then reminds us that we'll never hit the goal if we look backward to the problems of our past.

There are many people we can choose as role models in life but the best of them is by far Jesus. Watch how Jesus handled struggle and challenge. Then imitate that.

Paul says some powerful words in this chapter. Among those powerful words are the idea that dead or alive Christ is key.

The focus of the relationships Paul lists isn't about the people in those relationships, but about Jesus who makes those relationships possible.
