Reader’s Guide: “The Word for Today” Saturday, April 27, 2013 Read – Colossians 4 Paul’s letters are a good place for us to reflect upon the meaning of our faith. Though at times Paul is dealing with issues within the churches he founded – issues which are at times difficult for us to understand or identify with – Paul’s proclamation of the gospel is a source of faith and growth in our lives. It is amazing that Paul likely never dreamt that his writings would one day be considered scripture. As time passed Christians saw value in the writings of Paul and so they have come to us too to inform us and strengthen our faith.
