Since it is important for people to attend church to grow in their faith, it is important for us to take steps to invite them.

Too often, we spend a significant amount of time trying to obtain things to feel joy. It’s a futile cycle because lasting joy does not come from things.

While we all fall short, Paul reminds us it is not only possible for humans to sanctify their thinking, it is also something they should strive to do!

We are incapable of being like Jesus in our strength; however, with God’s power inside us, it is possible to live a life fulfilling God’s purpose.

As we read chapter two of Philippians, we will learn how joy is possible even when dealing with challenging people.

We are continuing our study of the Book of Philippians to learn more about Paul’s single-minded faith and joy in the face of all circumstances–even battle!

This week we are moving along in our exploration of the Book of Philippians to discover more about Paul’s joy-filled spirit.

For Jesus followers, it’s possible to be joyful – even when our circumstances suggest otherwise.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Tedd Tripp the author of Shepherding a Child’s Heart.
