Paul's ministry while in prison remains faithful, vibrant and fruitful. In response, the Philippians show the power of grace, gratitude, and giving. “Yet it was good of you to share in my troubles. Moreover, as you Philippians know, in the early days of your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from Macedonia, not one church shared with me …

After magnificent theological prelude, Paul now gets to the task at hand - a call to unity and thanksgiving for the gift given to him by the church. Paul also makes a reference here to the "Book of Life," a momentous concept that launches this lesson into a communion celebration. “Therefore, my brothers and sisters, you whom I love and long for, my…

Paul contrasts those who have their sights (and minds) set on earthly things vs those who appreciate that their citizenship is in heaven. “Join together in following my example, brothers and sisters, and just as you have us as a model, keep your eyes on those who live as we do. For, as I have often told you before and now tell you again even with t…

Jesus disrupted Paul's life and took hold of him. Now Paul wants but one thing: to take hold of Jesus and become more like him in every way. “Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to…

Paul reminds the Philippians about his life without Christ and about his life in Christ to safeguard them from those who would pervert the Gospel. “1 Further, my brothers and sisters, rejoice in the Lord! It is no trouble for me to write the same things to you again, and it is a safeguard for you. 2 Watch out for those dogs, those evildoers, those …

Paul commends Epaphroditus as a dear Brother, Co-Worker, Fellow-Soldier, Messenger, and Minister. In Epaphroditus, we find inspiration in one who is an "Everyday Person Imitating Christ." “25 But I think it is necessary to send back to you Epaphroditus, my brother, co-worker and fellow soldier, who is also your messenger, whom you sent to take care…

Paul tells the Philippian Church that they are to shine like stars amidst the darkness of a warped and perverse generation. In this sermon, we examine the depth of the darkness for today's generation and consider the charge to be lights to the world as we hold onto and hold forth the Word of life. This sermon was preached at the inaugural worship s…

Philippians 2:12-13 presents two seemingly contradictory ideas: "If it is to be, it is up to me" vs "Let go and let God." This tension has been the source of epic debate throughout Christian History via Augustine v Pelagius, Luther v Erasmus, and Calvin v Arminius. Rather than contention, this passage presents us with astouning wonder ("fear and tr…

The great Christological Hymn of Philippians 2 ushers into the mind of Christ and the grandeur of Christ. It also calls us to a humility that brings exaltation in Him. “In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own adva…

Given our encouragement, comfort, camaraderie, affection and mercy that Jesus showers on us, how should we then live? Paul calls the church to honor all this grace with a reciprocal eagerness for a unified church in mind, love, heart, and mission. Said another way, imitate Jesus. Imitate His mindset, His humility, His selflessness. When we do, we o…

Guest Preacher Tanner Versage preaches on our great privilege to not only believe in Jesus but also to suffer with him. That suffering is put into pithy perspective by "Replacements" quarterback Shane Falco with his inspirational charge: Pain Heals; Chicks Dig Scars; Glory Lasts Forever… most true in our communal walk with Jesus. “Whatever happens,…

Despite chains that bound him in prison, Paul rejoiced that the Gospel was unchained as Jesus made inroads in the Praetorium Guard as well as stoking the Philippians to greater boldness in sharing the good news. “Now I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that what has happened to me has actually served to advance the gospel. 13 As a result, it …

As Paul absolutely gushes over his intimate friendship with the Philippian Church, he also urges them to progress toward an even greater love — a love of deeper discernment. “I thank my God every time I remember you. 4 In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy 5 because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, …
