In this sermon on Colossians 2:6–15, Pastor Luke Herche teaches us how to avoid a Christ-less philosophy of life, exhorting us to walk in Christ with three points: don’t get taken in, remember Christ, and build your life upon him.

Want to go deeper? Take some time to reflect on the sermon with the following questions:

How do Paul’s command (vv. 6–7), warning (v. 8), and teaching (vv. 9–15) relate to one another?

What are the life-philosophies that are “in the air” in our culture? What are some of the dominant ways of life or philosophies of life that we meet in music, media, movies, in our workplaces and neighborhoods, politics and classrooms?

What of that is tempting for you? Where might you have blind spots to the philosophy-not-according-to-Christ of this age? Perhaps ask others to delicately help you with this question!

What will it look like to allow your life to be shaped by a life-philosophy that is according to Christ? Meaning both: 1.) How will that happen? 2.) What will that look like in your circumstances?
