The Letter to the Colossians aims to convince followers of Jesus that he is sufficient for their salvation and their experience of the life God has for them. Within this larger aim, Colossians presents the gospel and shows how it informs the way we live every area of our lives. A careful study of Colossians will result in greater fluency in the gospel. The more fluent we are in the gospel, the more we will be able to speak the truths of Jesus into the everyday stuff of our lives and the lives of others.
