As we make our way through the book of Colossians on Sunday mornings, here are some resources that I am finding helpful.
Best All Around
- If you want to get just one resource on Colossians, I would grab this book by pastor Sam Storms. It combines good study with pastoral concern:
- The Hope of Glory
- Sam Storms — this is the same basic content for free on his website!
