Scripture: Colossians 4:2-18
Speaker: Joshua Shively

Ch 4. The Truth about Spirituality and Service

Main Idea: Knowing the truth about spirituality and service calls us to live lives of prayer, wisdom, and faithfulness.

“The most important question is not how much work is being done but how much Jesus is doing through you. Look up; God’s ceiling is unlimited. Learn to look on Jesus, and more and more you will find that Jesus is directing your wandering look toward the Holy Spirit.”
Corrie Ten Boom

In a Nutshell

In chapter 4, Paul tells the Colossian believers: Fellow believers in Colosse, be diligent and alert in your prayers. 
Please pray that God will give me opportunities to share clearly the message of Christ even while I’m in this prison. 
In your own dealings with unbelievers, may you be wise with your lives and winsome with your words.

All of the men and women who assist me and who are such a comfort to me send you their greetings. I am sending a letter to the Laodicean believers, and I want the two churches to exchange and read one another’s letter. May God’s grace sustain you all.
