In the finale of our Colossians series, we explore Paul’s sign-off in Chapter 4—and uncover how his final greetings actually complete a sweeping movement through the letter: from the cosmic scale of Christ’s reconciliation of all things… to the gritty, intimate realities of daily life.
✨ We revisit the major themes:
• The Cosmic Opening: Why Paul starts in the stars to talk about daily ethics.
• Our Desires and Contributions: How our wants shape the world—and how to reshape them.
• Household Codes (and Their Subversion): Reading Paul’s commands through a lens of mutuality and reconciliation.
• Bringing It Home: How the grand story of the universe lands in something as ordinary as greetings and gratitude.
🔍 Along the way, Jeremy draws connections to his book Dirt and Stardust, exploring what it means to be both grounded and illuminated—salt of the earth and light of the cosmos. You’ll hear reflections on slavery, submission, justice, and the surprising relevance of Paul’s personal roll call to our lives today.
🧂 Live lives seasoned with salt.
🕊️ Be grateful. Be hopeful. Be wise.
