Title: Proclaiming to Others
Text: Colossians 4:2-6
The letter to Colossae was written by Paul while he was in prison to remind the church the sufficiency of Christ for salvation. If Christ is sufficient for our salvation, the greatest gift we could ever receive, we should proclaim what He has done with excitement.

Perspective Questions:
- In the sermon, we are called to pray as part of how we proclaim the gospel. Why is prayer important in the proclamation of the gospel? Is this congruent with your own prayer life?
