Jesus had risen and he’d promised true, forever life to everyone who put their faith in him. The Apostle Paul knew it was fact. He had encountered Jesus himself and was living out what Christ had promised. Nothing could quench his joy!...Not even damp, cold prison cells. From those dark places, he wrote letters of hope and encouragement! Using the words “joy” and “rejoice” 16 times in Philippians alone, it’s safe to say that is the main theme of his short letter to the church family in Philippi. Paul proved we can be joyful no matter what - this message series will show us how!

Community is a source of great joy - and great conflict. The Christ-like attitudes we chose enable us to live in joy and help others choose it, too. Paul’s great joy and love for the Philippians is all over his communication.

Our lives depend on our attitudes. Our attitudes depend on our choices. We’re not talking about positive thinking. We’re talking about acting on Truth. When we know and follow Jesus, he gives us the model for living with joy as we adopt his attitude.

Paul had every reason to join the ranks of the thoroughly depressed, irritable, and hopeless. He was in a hot muggy prison in Rome; separated from convenience, comfort, and friends. He was imprisoned because he followed Jesus – doing the right things! But, people who claimed to follow God were jealous and antagonistic over his preaching and gaining followers. Sounds like the recipe for a perfect pity party – but, not Paul. He held the secret of joy: Knowing what really matters.

Why does One so often turn back into Two? The causes are multiple, and the pain ripples far and long. God hates divorce because he loves people so much. If you are divorced, God loves you so much and wants to help you. You don’t have to excuse, minimize, or hide. God power is big and can help you move through divorce with grace.

Marriage is a covenant, not a contract. It fundamentally changes you. It is becoming one. Life, culture, and our Enemy will try to un-one what God has made one. We must fight through the changing seasons of life to stay connected. It is worth it.

When we date, we often swerve into relationships that take us into dangerous territory and we end up losing stuff we can’t afford to lose. We need to seek and follow God’s wisdom and will. Preparation gives power to promises.

There are more single adults living, working, and breathing in the United States than ever before in history. A U.S. census reports 110.6 million unmarried people over the age of 18. That’s 45.2% of the American adult population.

In 1960, 72% of adults were married. Among today’s growing single population, 63% have never been married, 23% are divorced, and 13% are widowed. Some singles feel doomed and disappointed while others are delighted with their lives. Singles are often the biggest asset in their environments. You can thrive in the challenges of singleness, whether it is by choice or circumstance.
