“Raised Together: Colossians” (Gloria Furman)
“By HIM all things hold together.” Colossians 1:17
Paul’s letter to the church at Colossae encourages believers to live out the reality of the doctrine of Christ—He is God, He is supreme, and He is sufficient. We have been buried and raised to life with Him as new creations, knit together in love.
In 8 sessions, explore themes of foundational Christian doctrine through verse-by-verse study of Colossians. Learn who Christ is, who you are in Him, and how to grow and mature in your faith.
Facilitated by Eileen Ellis in Room 201. Workbook $16.
