The what, how, and why involved in the pursuit of knowing Jesus.

In Philippians 3:1-11, the apostle Paul coaches his readers through the wonder of knowing Jesus.

God's grace is sufficient.

To stand firm as citizens of the gospel means (1) striving together for the gospel and (2) not being intimidated by opposition to the gospel.
