Matthew 10:16-39

In Matthew, Jesus forewarns of suffering we will experience as His followers. Suffering for Him is greater than prospering without Him, and the warning is a grace to us that allows us to experience unconventional contentment.

1 Timothy 6

Discontentment is not difficult. We can drift toward it pretty easily. In 1 Timothy 6, Paul encourages us in how we might more intentionally pursue contentment in regard to our relationship toward money.

Philippians 4:10-23

As Paul closes the book of Philippians, he rejoices with the church at Philippi for their partnership in the Gospel. This time, Paul gives thanks for their financial gifts to him explicitly, and he teaches us his own strategy for contentment in life, regardless of our financial well-being.

Philippians 3:1-11

The narrow way of following Jesus is one we live by grace. However, theologians have long warned Christians against the opposing ditches on either side of the narrow path. The first of those is legalism, which Paul warns against in this passage.

Philippians 2:12-30

Joy and Partnership are two cornerstone themes in the book of Philippians. In Philippians 2:12-30, Paul provides examples of two great partners to him, what it cost them, and how Paul hopes the Philippians receive them. What implications does this have for our own Christian walk and partnership with others in the Gospel?

Philippians 2:1-11

We all want to be a somebody, but Christ, the ultimate somebody, became a nobody for all of our sakes. We can put our faith in Him because of this and we can follow His example in humbling ourselves.

Philippians 1:21-30

We often think of Joy as something we experience on the other side of suffering. Paul, in Philippians, describes suffering as part of the joy of being a follower of Christ.
