In this episode of the Rooted Discipleship Podcast, Walker Davis and Chad Gott continue their study through Colossians, picking up in Colossians 2:9–15. As Paul keeps confronting false teaching in the church, he brings everything back to one central truth: the fullness of God is found in Christ alone.
They unpack Paul’s language about spiritual circumcision, baptism, and being made alive with Christ, showing how Jesus didn’t just improve believers—He made them new. What does it mean to put off the “body of flesh”? How does baptism connect to death and resurrection? And why does Paul keep stressing that believers are no longer bound by their old life?
Along the way, Walker and Chad talk about temptation, spiritual warfare, the danger of letting sinful thoughts linger, and why believers need both Scripture and Christian community to stand firm. They also reflect on the beauty of small groups, the importance of letting others serve you in times of need, and how God often uses everyday moments of care, healing, and encouragement to remind us that nothing in the Christian life is random.
At the center of it all is the good news Paul gives in these verses: our debt has been canceled, our sin has been nailed to the cross, and through Christ we have been made alive.
