Week 1 - Christ in You — The Hope of Glory (Col 1:1–14)

Paul opens the letter with gratitude and prayer, emphasizing gospel transformation. The message of Christ is bearing fruit and growing throughout the world.

True hope is not found in circumstances but in Christ dwelling within believers. The “hope of glory” is not self-improvement — it is Christ’s life in us.

This week establishes that spiritual maturity begins with gospel confidence and ongoing growth in faith, love, and perseverance.

Big Idea: Our hope is not in what we can achieve, but in Christ living in us and transforming us.
