Sometimes, a choice we have to make isn't difficult. One option is clearly superior in every way. But what about when the choices all seem equally good? Is there a way to know God's will then? As Paul continues in his letter to the Colossians, he helps us understand how to find peace in our decisions when it comes to following Christ.

Look at an athlete on day one of their training, and then look at them again after a year. What if you didn't see a difference?

But keep it up and we're sure to see results!

What place do rules and regulations have in the Christian's life? We know that we aren't saved because of how well we follow the rules, but we're not supposed to do just whatever we want, either. Paul addresses this as he continues his encouraging words to the Colossian believers.

Becoming a Christian can be like stepping into a new country for the first time. All around are people using words you don't know and following customs that are new to you.

The idea of the Trinity (God in three persons) has always been hard to comprehend. So where did the idea come from in the first place? From passages like the one we'll look at today. We'll take a look at Paul's words to the Colossians and be reminded of God's majesty over all.

Have you ever wondered how you should be in prayer for other believers? Paul sets a wonderful example for us in his letter to the Colossians.

One thing that rings clearly throughout all of Paul's letters is his appreciation for the support and prayers that other believers send his way.

Being in prison, Paul was very aware of the types of challenges and trials we all face in life. Yet, through it all, Paul tells us we can experience joy and peace. Paul continues his letter by telling us how to find that divine source of peace and joy, and how to be a beacon of hope in a world longing for rest.

As Paul wrote his letter to the Philippians from jail, he reminded them of something very important. As Christ-followers, the eyes of the world are upon us. As citizens of heaven, we've been given the responsibility of shining God's light to our neighborhoods, and the rest of the world. Find out more from Paul about how we can thrive as we live our lives for Christ.

Do you imagine God holding a clipboard and checking items off a list as He watches your life, evaluating your worthiness for heaven? "Baptized--check"; "Church attendance--check"; "Tithing--".

Humility can be a hard word to swallow, especially when everything inside us tells us to stand up and fight.
