Joe: Alright, so we're talking about Colossians 4 today. What can you tell us about it?

Bible Expert: Well Joe, Colossians 4 is about living a life of wisdom and godliness. Paul is teaching the Colossians how to live a life of wisdom and godliness. He starts off by telling them to be wise in the way they conduct themselves, to make the most of every opportunity, and to be wise in the way they speak.

Joe: Interesting. What else does it talk about?

Bible Expert: Paul then tells the Colossians to be devoted to prayer, to be thankful in all circumstances, and to be wise in how they treat people. He also admonishes them to be careful in the way they speak to their slaves, and to be kind to everyone.

Joe: Slaves? That's a bit outdated, isn't it?

Bible Expert: Yes, it is, but the underlying principle of being kind to everyone still applies today.

Joe: What else does the chapter talk about?

Bible Expert: Paul then goes on to talk about Tychicus and Onesimus, and he gives them instructions on how to conduct themselves. He also sends greetings from the Colossian church to the Laodiceans, and he urges them to exchange letters.

Joe: Wow, that's a lot of information. What else does the chapter say?

Bible Expert: Paul ends the chapter by telling the Colossians to be wise and to live as God's chosen people. He encourages them to be filled with the Spirit and to walk in wisdom.

Joe: Well, that sounds like some great advice. Thanks for the summary!
