Rooted. That’s the theme of Paul’s letter to the Colossians, and this fall, we’re going to study this letter. Paul’s prayer and his concern was that the young believers in Colossae be firmly rooted in their faith. In the theme verse of his letter, Paul writes, “As you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, firmly rooted and being built up in Him” (Colossians 2:6-7). Paul also urged them, and urges us, to “walk in manner worthy of the Lord” … to give Jesus “first place in everything” … to keep growing until we are “complete in Christ” … and to “set our minds on things above.”
