Book: Philippians

Join us as we search for the gospel in Philippians.

My identity is not what I think apart from the wisdom of God. My identity is not what I feel apart from the reordering of God. My identity is not what I do over and above the person of God. Challenging every thought, desire, and religious duty—taking them captive, and surrendering to Christ alone. My true, intended, and chosen identity.

“Aging is what happens if we’re lucky; it means that I’m alive.” —Cindy Crawford.
Young and old, we are unhappy with our bodies. Sometimes they don’t work. Sometimes they don’t make sense.
Your body has meaning, purpose, and a future. And to prove it…our Lord has one too.

Remember to show an attitude of gratitude.

Beginning is tough. Starting over is harder still. But Paul says he is confident that the same God whose voice shook the earth, that rouses the dead from slumber, and brings salvation from heaven is at work…in you!

What is it that you really, really want? This is the first question Jesus asks in the Gospel of John (Jn 1:38). To a man in need of sight, and to disciples who struggled with spiritual vision, Jesus asks “what is it that you want me to do for you?” To a man who lay sick, unaware of the power awaiting him, Jesus asks “Do you want to be made well?” Having the mind of Christ is wanting one thing. And it will change your life forever. Part 2 of the “Learning Christ” Series.

What does it look like to read a book of the New Testament through the lens of the gospel and Christian theology? What deeper truths do we learn about God, Christ, the Spirit, the Church, Salvation, Christian Faith & Discipleship, and Eschatology? In this conference presentation, we look at preaching Philippians in a way that shines a light on these central themes.
