We finished Colossians yesterday. There is so much more I would have liked to have said, but we need to start looking at the parables in Matthew. LTC is focused on Matthew this year and I want us to spend some time there on Sunday morning. At the end of Colossians Paul focuses on relationships. Husbands and wives, parents and children, slaves and owners as well as those around us who are not believers are the ones Paul discusses.. How the household functions is primary to our spiritual growth. Gary Thomas makes the point that marriage is not about making us happy, but holy. How we treat those closest to us tells us the most about ourselves. Spiritual growth starts there. How I treat my wife, children and those others close to me is fundamental to God and my growth spiritually.
