2. Read and discuss Colossians 4:2-6 . What do these verses tell you about you? What do they tell you about Jesus?

4. Have you had any recent opportunities to “proclaim the mystery of Christ” (v. 3)? What happened?
5. What does it mean to “walk in wisdom toward outsiders” (v. 5)? Do you make the best use of your time with those who do not know Jesus? How can you grow in this area?
6. What does it mean to be gracious in speech (v. 6)? Do you consider your words generally to be “seasoned with salt”? How do you need to grow in this area?
7. “God did not come to heal all your pain, but to give you the grace to get through the pain.” Have you experienced this? How do you respond to that statement? How can pain become a platform for the gospel?
