This weekend we kick off our new sermon series on the book of Philippians titled “JOYFULL.”
I truly believe that the most joyous places on planet earth should be local churches and the most joyous people should be Christian believers. The book of Philippians is known as the “letter of joy.” In the pages of this four chapter book we find key truths and principles that, when lived out, make church a joyous place and Christian believers joyous people.
This weekend we will be studying Philippians 1:3-11. In this passage we see some amazing things about the joy Paul possessed. Although he was incarcerated by the Roman government when he wrote this letter, he had a perspective of God, life and others that lifted his spirits and kept him strong.
As we get ready to study together, I would encourage you to take some time to read a few background verses that show us the beginnings of the church at Philippi and why Paul felt the way he did about them. Take a look at:
Acts 16
I am praying that, through this series God will increase the level of joy in our individual lives and families and in our church family. Don’t miss it!
Saturdays @ 5 and 7pm
Sundays @ 9, 11am and 1pm
Make sure and invite a friend. I am looking forward to seeing you!
