Philippians

It’s not uncommon to hear a sportsperson say that in order to be successful they have to be selfish. 

But is there a different way to operate in our sports? A different motivation?

Jesus makes it really clear for us in John 15, that we must abide in Him, for apart from Him we can do nothing. Simply put, if we are going to grow and thrive in our relationship with the Lord, we must be regularly connected to Him. One of the most foundational and essential ways to connect with and abide in Christ is by reading his Words. The Bible is God’s Word given to us to know Him and to know how to follow Him. The more we engage with the Bible and with God, the more we will grow and produce the good fruit in our lives He desires for us. Come on. Let’s read His Words of life together!

This 11-day video devotional series is based on Paul’s Letter to the Philippians. These are unprecedented times. When there doesn’t seem a reason to have joy, not to mention to share it, remember God’s Word is unwavering. It speaks to every time and every situation. 

Sharing the Joy

How is it possible to have deep joy in the midst of overwhelming sorrow and suffering? Out of 104 verses in this power-packed book, Jesus is mentioned directly or indirectly 51 times. In the end, Paul teaches us that Jesus is the Author and only Source of true joy.

The things of this world can never satisfy our deepest longings. Without Jesus there is no salvation, and therefore no lasting joy. Without Jesus there is no way to overcome our circumstances, to love people who are hard to love, to reconcile, to forgive, and to live godly lives.

Deeper Into Scripture is  a methodology of scripture reading that instructs, encourages and equips people to read God's Word daily and deeply.  We have created a unique four-fold method of bible reading that directs the individual to read a short passage of scripture four times.  Each reading is done with a different question, instruction or objective to be considered.  This repetitive reading takes us deeply into the Word of God, increases our understanding and draws us closer to Him.
