Philippians

Paul’s letter to the church in philippi

The letter to the Philippians, written by Paul, gave news of Paul’s work, plans, and hopes. But it also teaches us today about the dangers of placing our confidence in anything but Christ and the joy that is found in Him that can sustain us through any challenge. Dr. Carl Laney writes,“Paul knew that a heart filled with joy was better able to endure through difficult times.”

Our goal in this series is to connect and reinforce in people’s minds that being a Christian means in some way participating in the life of Jesus. Through every aspect of our lives, whether joy or sacrifice, it can be used for God’s kingdom and in that there is joy. And as we serve, we are deeply transformed through the Spirit’s work in us. There is an invitation to partner with Christ, will we accept that invitation from Jesus?
