In Philippians 4, Paul expresses deep gratitude for the church’s support, showing how a heart anchored in Christ overflows with thanksgiving. His testimony reminds us that true joy comes not from what we receive but from a faith that trusts God’s provision in every season.
Contentment isn’t found in circumstances but in Christ. In Philippians 4, Paul reveals the secret to lasting peace—trusting God’s provision and strength in every situation. True satisfaction comes not from what we have but from who He is.
Sermon on Philippians 3:14, where the Apostle Paul exhorts us to press on toward the mark of the upward call in Christ Jesus, seeking to attain even to the measure of the resurrection in our holiness & fellowship with the Lord, as it were.
The Apostle Paul offers a powerful reminder to "rejoice in the Lord always" (Phil. 4:4) and invites us to experience a joy that is rooted not in circumstances, but in the unchanging nature of God.
Sunday, December 29, 2024 – It’s the last Sunday of 2024 – hard to believe how quickly the year has flown by once again. I say once again because 2025 is going to go by even faster (or at least it will seem to). I’m taking this week and next to review the two books of the Bible that we worked our way through last year. We began with a study on Paul’s letter to the church in Philippi, so the book is aptly named Philippians. This is one of 13 books written by Paul (14 if you believe he wrote the book of Hebrews). In this book, Paul didn’t correct any bad theology or address false teachers; rather, he focused on how to find joy in the process of living through every circumstance in life. What a timely and needed study for us in the times we are living in! One of the most significant takeaways for me was defining joy as truly having peace no matter the situation. Joy can easily be confused with happiness, but it is hardly related. However, joy is tightly connected with peace. This is one of the main points Paul makes: as we learn how to rejoice in all things, God brings us a peace that passes all understanding, and with that comes a joy that the world cannot take away. Worship and study along with us.

What does it mean to live the Christian Life?

WWJD bracelets were all the rage at one time. Their intent was to get the wearer to ask themselves, “What would Jesus do?” The problem with this is that one’s answer was totally subjective. Two people could have two radically different views as to what Jesus would do in any given situation. A better question to ask, and one that drives us to the gospels rather than our preconceived notions, is “What did Jesus do?” That’s precisely the question Paul asks as he presents Jesus as the perfect example of humility.
Television shows like Survivor have become a window into the selfishness that characterizes our culture and fallen humanity as a whole. As contestants lie, cheat, and steal to gain advantage over their opponents, we recognize the same self-seeking, self-aggrandizing mindset that is all around us and, unfortunately, often within us. This mindset, while pervasive in 21st century America, is hardly unique to us. The early church had to contend with it, as well; it was, in fact, threatening to pull the Philippian church apart. As Paul continues the appeal for unity he began at the end of Philippians 1, we see some of the basic facts about the role our humility plays.

As Paul moves into the main body of his letter to the Philippians, he has every reason to be miserable. He is a prisoner of Rome, shackled to a soldier night and day, and facing the prospect of execution. Additionally, a portion of the church at Rome is apparently seeking to bring harm or misfortune to him in his imprisonment. Despite all this, Paul has a true and abiding joy. In our text this morning, Paul gives two reasons for this joy, that we would do well to consider
