In Search of Joy: In the Book of Philippians

 

What Worries You?

May 29, 2021 | Pastor Carlos Pasillas

Chapter four is the conclusion of the book of Philippians. Paul shares his final thoughts and reminds his readers of how we need to face our current situation and trials. Philippians 4:4, Always be full of joy. How can you be full if you feel so empty? How can you be full if you feel it's hard to just put one foot in front of the other? Where did Paul find his source of strength? In his prayer life.

Scripture: Philippians 4:4-5

Jesus Loves Me This I Know

"In Search For Joy," Paul discovers what brings him great joy. His joy comes from knowing Christ, knowing how much love God has for him. This concept is where we get the famous children song, "Jesus Loves Me This I Know." Could it be that this simple phrase has a deeper meaning? Follow along as we go through the book of Philippians.

Scripture: Philippians 3:7

United In Purpose

Paul continues to share what brings him great joy. When most people today celebrate their independence Paul introduces the concept of unity in a community. Paul finds joy knowing that his church is striving to be united. Because no matter where you are, belonging to a group makes more sense.

Scripture: Philippians 2:2

In Search of Joy

May 8, 2021 | Pastor Carlos Pasillas

What are we searching for? That question has a long list of answers. Some of us are looking for our car keys, some of us are searching for something much deeper like acceptance or possibly forgiveness. Paul tells us what he found and perhaps it might give us perspective in our search for things in this life. Paul finds joy and you would never expect what it could be! Discover what brought joy in the life of Paul.
