The end of Paul's letter to the church in Philippi reminds all of us that contentment isn't something that happens to us, but a choice we make. And we can be truly content when we rest in the strength supplied by Jesus Christ through all situations and seasons.

God gives us a command to rejoice always. The only way we can actually obey is if we rejoice "in the Lord," and Paul gives some practical direction on how we go about doing so.

Joy only comes and remains in our lives when our minds are set on the things that cultivate it. When we set our minds on earthly things, the fleeting pleasures leave us hollow. Instead, Paul teaches that our thoughts and goals ought to be set on the eternal, spiritual promises of God made possible through Jesus.

Our sense of confidence and gain can come from so many places. But Paul shares from personal experience that those things don't bring true, lasting joy. We continue in Philippians to see why giving up any worldly gain is worth laying hold of the surpassing worth of gaining Christ.

Pursuing genuine joy requires that we set our interests in line with Jesus's interests. This involves embracing holiness through Christ Himself, as well as loving service to and sacrifice for other people.

Jesus was the most important person in every room he ever walked into. And yet, the King of kings sought to care for and serve every other soul in those rooms. This is the humility that Jesus's followers must have.

We struggle to find joy in circumstances that are not ideal. But true, Biblical joy comes from responding to situations and making decisions with a mind to pursue and proclaim Jesus--come what may.

We have discussed the principle of Biblical joy on this program before. Today we begin a series that will take us through Paul's letter to the Philippians in an effort to examine how Paul (from prison!) teaches fellow Christians to choose joy and demonstrates this practice himself.
