How are you holding up? I’ve talked to a lot of people this week. I hear diverse thoughts, opinions, emotions, struggles, frustrations, gratitude, creativity, teachability, dependence upon God, and a few friends crying, “Let me out!!!!”
So this week, let’s read the Prison epistles:
Ephesians
Philippians
Colossians
Philemon
As you read, respond in your journal. Consider these questions:
What does Paul emphasize in these concise letters?
What is foremost on his heart and mind?
How does Paul keep his sanity?
How does Paul care for people from prison?
How do they do church without a building?
How did the first century church commit to love and unity while often isolated from one another?
How can we love our faith community?
How can we share Christ with a world that needs to see Him?
We’ll have a great discussion Tuesday as we learn from Paul on how to do Church in less than ideal situations.
