All Things Are Possible with God
As a child, Dexter Thomas was told he was worthless because he was born blind. But God reached him with a message of love and empowerment and he is a new creature in Christ. Although told he would never complete high school, he went on to earn a doctoral degree! He is passionate about reaching others for Christ, including those who are blind, and created a ministry called Phone Faith, now operated by Christian Record Services.

Participating in the Mission of Jesus
Colossians 4 highlights how the early church joined together in “Participating in the Mission of Jesus” through many different believers—messengers, prayer warriors, leaders, encouragers, and helpers. Paul mentions people like Tychicus, Onesimus, Epaphras, and Luke, showing that God uses all kinds of people in His work. Even those who once failed, like John Mark, were restored and became valuable in ministry.

Living with Each Other
Drawing from Colossians 3 and 4, this study explores how Christ transforms the way believers relate to spouses, children, coworkers, and everyone around them. Paul emphasizes mutual submission, sacrificial love, patient instruction, and the avoidance of harsh or discouraging behavior. Even in difficult social structures, he calls Christians to work with integrity, treat others with fairness, and remember that all service is ultimately for the Lord.
