Humility: Colossians 3:1-17

What does it look like to set our minds on things above when all the responsibilities of life are navigated in earthly realities? How do you clothe yourself with humility and compassion when ego and self promotion seem to always be in style? In Colossians 3:1-17, we are invited to live resurrected lives as a witness to the world.

Scripture reading: Colossians 3:1-17, Mark 1:29-39 (Children’s Ministry)

This is Week 3 of our series on Humility

Respond together:

• How does my understanding of being "raised with Christ" and all the past tenses he has accomplished for me (buried with, raised with, canceled debts) influence my sense of identity and purpose?

• In consideration of the “putting to death” of earthly vices and the “putting on” of virtues:

  What areas of my life need God’s transformation? What wounds in my life need God’s healing?

• How does Paul's instruction to “bear with each other and forgive one another” challenge my attitudes toward forgiveness and reconciliation? In what ways can humility facilitate greater healing and restoration in my relationships?

• In what ways does living out of the reality of who Jesus is and what he has done for us connect with the peace of God ruling in our hearts?
