What's special about Colossians?
Colossians is a carefully composed letter that centers on the theme of Christ’s sovereignty over all
rulers and powers in the universe.
When you download this Bible study leader guide from Enter the Bible, you'll receive insights on key passages as well as discussion questions to lead a four-week study.
This leader guide is informed by the scholarship of Dr. Paul S. Berge, Professor Emeritus of New Testament at Luther Seminary, and Dr. Elisabeth Johnson, Pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, currently doing interim ministry in the Twin Cities (Minnesota) area.
What’s Inside
This guide introduces you to Colossians and can be adapted to suit your group's needs. With the resources below, you'll have the info and inspiration to lead with confidence.
Find commentaries on distinctive passages in Colossians, including the Christ Hymn of Colossians (Colossians 1), the concept of being buried with Christ in baptism (Colossians 2), and living in the identity of Christ's death and resurrection (Colossians 3), along with other passages. Reflection questions for each week provide prompts to lead a robust discussion on these passages.
Consider opening and closing each study session with prayer. It's a chance to give thanks for those present, to lift up particular prayer requests, to grow deeper in faith and community, and to seek God's help in understanding and living out the message found in God's Word.
