Hope for Right Now Podcast – Grace and Glory: Philippians 2

Join Lisa and Laura for our four-week podcast series—Grace and Glory, based on Saint Paul’s letter to the Philippians. 

Often called The Epistle of Joy, Saint Paul’s letter overflows with rejoicing, gratitude, and encouragement—amazing, when you consider that Paul wrote it from a prison cell. As women seeking joy but who often feel confined by our circumstances, what was Saint Paul’s secret? How do we rejoice in our suffering? How do we remain grateful when our situation is the opposite of what we were hoping for? 

In this second episode of Grace and Glory, Lisa and Laura talk about unity, humility, and how to become shining lights in the midst of a dark and broken world. 

Open your Heart to our key Scripture.

Philippians 2 

Open your Bible to other Scriptures referenced in this episode.

Matthew 23:12: Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.
James 4:10: Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.
Proverbs 29:23: A man's pride will bring him low, but he who is lowly in spirit will obtain honor.

Invite Him in with this episode’s questions for reflection.

Every day this week, slowly read the second chapter in The Letter to the Philippians. Consider looking up different Bible translations to help you enter more deeply. What verse or word stands out to you? Ask yourself: Do I have absolute confidence in Jesus as Lord? Am I recognizing my need for His heart with a daily commitment to prayer?
