Philippians 4:10-13 (Tim Hester)

“I can do all things through Him who strengthens me” might be the most misused verse in the Bible. We’ll look at the context behind what Paul is writing and see what the Lord actually wants us to learn from it, which is the secret to true contentment.

Philippians 1:12-21 (Ronnie Cordrey)

Paul is writing from prison to his friends in a city where he was beaten publicly, yet he still has the robust confidence to rejoice. This passage reveals the priorities and heart of Paul: he can suffer with hope because it’s God’s agenda that shapes his perspective, not his current circumstances.

Philippians 3:1-11 (Ben Cross)

In Paul’s old social sphere, he had it all: power, influence, and notoriety. He was gifted, diligent, and downright impressive. Yet, after encountering Christ, Paul counted all these gains “as loss for the sake of Christ.” We look to this text to discover what that means, and why it’s worth imitating.

Philippians 2:3-11 (Chris Burke)

The majority of this section of Paul’s letter was actually a song or poem of sorts that encouraged unity among the Philippians by detailing the humility of Christ. It is in Christ’s humility that we see why Christianity is different from any other religion or lifestyle in the world.

Philippians 4:4-9 (Mason Bramer)

Internal conflict in the church at Philippi and external anxieties are both bringing them dismay. Paul addresses the difficult circumstances in Philippi by exhorting, “Rejoice in God always! I’ll say it again—rejoice!” These verses show us how to obtain the peace of God.

Jesus, aware of His impending arrest and murder, comes before the Father in the Garden of Gethsemane. He prays to God, asking if there could be any other way to restore the relationship between man and God, but submits Himself to obeying the Father, trusting it is for the ultimate good.
