COLOSSIANS + JAMES
These short bible readings, questions, and prayer points are designed to help you spend time with God, by helping you ground your life in his word.
This time, Ann Street Daily will walk you through both Paul's Letter to the Colossians and the letter from James which we’ll be working through in Term 4 of 202. It’s not designed to unpack every single detail, but to help you digest the narrative as a whole. Our hope is that as you look at the words of our good, generous and wise God, you'll see his character and trustworthiness shining though, and be willing to change your life in obedience to him. Each day has a diferent passage to look at, some helpful questions to get you thinking, and some points to start you praying.
