The series of letters you will read this week offers further theological reflection from Paul on the Gospel and our role as the Church. Paul used these letters to draw church communities into a better and clearer understanding of the Gospel and what Jesus accomplished on the cross.

Proper understanding of the Gospel through these letters should compel us to imitate Jesus in every area of our lives. Paul declares that even our suffering can bring us into a closer relationship with the risen Messiah.
