Let the Word of God Dwell in You Richly

Deeper Christian Podcast • Episode 237

Paul commands us to let the Word of Christ dwell in us richly (Colossians 3:16).

Yet for too many of us, the Bible is an add-on to our lives, not the center of our hearts, minds, words, and actions.

In this episode, we talk about what it means for the Word of God to dwell in us abundantly and how it in turn should bubble forth out of our lives to the world around us.

Join Nathan in an in-depth Christ-centered study of the book of Colossians

  • Colossians 3:16-17 – Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with gratefulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.
  • Psalm 119:9, 11 – How can a young man keep his way pure? By keeping it according to Your word. … Your word I have treasured in my heart, That I may not sin against You.
  • Colossians 3:3-4 – For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory.
  • Colossians 1:18b – … so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything.
  • Romans 11:36 – For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen.

Question: How do you practically dwell richly in God’s Word?

Leave a response or ask a question and we will try to address it in a future episode.
