While imprisoned in Rome, Paul warns believers to remain vigilant against false teaching by beautifully expounding on the cosmic Person of Christ. Jesus is “the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything He might be preeminent” (Colossians 1:18). In response to Christ’s preeminence, Paul commands his readers to “seek the things that are above where Christ is…and not on the things that are on earth” (Colossians 3:1-2).

Christians are different. They can’t help it. When you’re born again and filled with the Spirit, it changes you. This leads to different values about right and wrong, and a different lifestyle to match it.

The Bible is a big book and can often feel intimidating. But this big book contains God’s story and plan for creation. When we take time to read it slowly and reflect on its words, it transforms our lives. Join us as we do just that with this five-day reading plan on the book of Colossians.

God created us for relationships. In fact, the greatest commandment—to love God with all our heart, soul, and mind and to love our neighbor as our self—is all about relationships (Matthew 22:36-40). But that’s not exactly easy all the time; relationships are messy and tough. In this plan, you’ll encounter practical Scripture passages that will help you build, maintain, and expand your relationships with God and others.

Marriage is a challenging and rewarding relationship, and so often we forget that “I do” is only the beginning. Fortunately, the Bible has much to say about marriage from both the husband’s and wife’s perspectives. The brief Scripture passages you’ll encounter each day of this plan are designed to help you grow in your understanding of God’s design for marriage—and deepen your relationship with your spouse in the process.

This plan provides you three unique inductive study questions for each reading,  joyfully offered to help you meet God in his Word with greater perceptivity,  understanding, and power. The "Questions for" series was written and edited by InterVarsity staff.

What are the ways of Jesus? Jesus has called you and then has asked you to follow him. How do followers begin to live in the ways of Jesus?

He is the head of the body, the church. He holds creation together. He’s the first, the best, the priority of everything. Jesus Christ is the center of the circle around which all Christian living revolves. If you’re tempted by false teaching or feel too discouraged to go on, remember who Jesus Christ is in these six lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.
