In a world filled with anxieties, worries, and fears, could you stand to have a bit more joy? The believers in Philippi were struggling. They were trying to grow in faith and live for Christ. Trying to deal with conflict and threats of persecution. The apostle Paul was stuck in a Roman prison when he wrote to this young church. His letter could have focused on his own troubles.

His excitement challenges us in this guide to joy.

Download or read book Living for What Really Matters written by Teresa Swanstrom Anderson and published by NavPress. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Get Wisdom Bible Studies help women connect with Scripture in an accessible and energizing way. Teresa Swanstrom Anderson guides with a winsome style that is rich in depth, but still approachable for newer readers of the Bible. What Are You Hustling For? We glorify busyness. We hustle, hoping to gain approval and find acceptance. Yet for most of us, we simply hustle our way to burnout. But what if it's only pointless hustle that leads to burnout? What if meaningful struggle can lead us to growth and depth and even joy? The apostle Paul understood hustle--and struggle--better than most. But in prison, where we'd expect him to be burned out and depressed, he wrote a letter to his Philippian friends seeking to build them up, a letter filled with thankfulness, generosity, and joy. Focused on Jesus rather than concentrating on his own discomfort, Paul's actions brilliantly display what happens when hardship is used for the glory of God. We might feel that life is trying to bury us . . . but what we forget is that we're a seed. Philippians will show us how we can grow deep roots and blossom by finding the meaning in our struggle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experience joy in any situation... Follow Dr. Jeremiah through the letter of Philippians in a chapter-by-chapter study that will help you understand what it meant to the people at the time it was written, and what it means to Christians today. The believers in Philippi were experiencing both concern for Paul while he was in prison and spiritual discouragement. Paul wrote this loving letter to encourage them in their faith and to remind them that there was a greater future in store for him and for them outside this world. Paul even admits the tension he feels between living to continue sharing the gospel and dying so he can be with Christ. This mindset allowed Paul to remain joyful in the midst of suffering and he knew the same would be true of the Philippi believers as well.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you remember when God amazed you? When he marvelously provided for you? Sadly, sometimes we forget God's mercy. The early believers in the Colossian church had forgotten too. Instead, they were impressed by spiritual claims from false teachers. The apostle Paul's letters reminded them that Jesus is all we will ever need. Paul encourages. He challenges. He gives principles for living and interacting at work, in our families, and our churches. Paul also knew that one of his friends had been betrayed and had every reason to seek revenge. So Paul wrote to Philemon encouraging him to rise above his hurt and show mercy, forgiveness, grace, and love. Paul's letters remind us of the difference Christ makes in every aspect of our lives. As you read, study, journal, and discuss the books of Colossians and Philemon, watch for these key themes that Max will unpack throughout the book: Faith, love, and hope are key to following Christ. In Christ Jesus, we have been offered freedom. Because of Jesus, Christians can be as in touch with the next world as this one.
