There is something special about the written word. In a modern world filled with disposable e-mails, receiving a handwritten letter remains one of life s simple pleasures. A personal letter is crafted with purpose. Its carefully chosen words form thoughts, share feelings, and convey ideas--ideas that can transcend time and change lives.

Living the Letters invites you to rediscover the power of the written word. This study guide highlights one of the greatest letters ever written: Paul s message to the young church in Colosse. With this twelve-week study, you ll explore the rich wisdom of Colossians on topics such as grace, real life, and love.

So don t just read the Bible.
Read, think, pray, and live His Word.
