Paul, a man in prison facing certain death, abandoned by friends and in the darkest moment of his life is FULL OF JOY. Philippians holds the key to standing out in the world, not with a mask of cheerfulness, but with a sincere heart of joy.

This is a 10 day reading plan through the Book of Philippians along with a devotional guide for meditative reading. This plan focusses on experiencing true and lasting joy in the midst of life's trials and struggles. We will see how one can live in such a way that honours God and results in unimaginable joy.

A life spent chasing happiness can easily be shaken, but there is a joy that transcends circumstances.

A war is taking place over our identity. It has stopped us from living authentic, vulnerable, transparent lives and is robbing us of fullness of life. We wear masks that cover the truth - we are created in God's likeness and image. He has paid for us to be equipped with love, peace, joy, and security. Let's lose the masks and discover who God created us to be.

The Bible's letters weren't written to be studied from a safe distance — they landed in real cities, addressed real crises, and cost the people who received them something. This reading plan by Nathan Finochio walks through the New Testament epistles with theological honesty, tracing the single thread connecting every letter: Jesus is sufficient, preeminent, and better than every alternative. From the chaos of Corinth to the pressure of Philippi, the gospel kept doing what it always does—dismantling false systems, unifying divided people, and forming unlikely disciples into the image of Christ.

'Tis the season to be Jolly and Joyful because we have the most incredible, good news story headlining our lives: God came to earth to show His love for us and laid down His life so we could enJOY life with Him!

A 14-day reading plan through Paul’s letter to the Philippians.

Ideal for believers at any stage of the Christian life. A resource from Christianity Explored Ministries.

Giving thanks for God's good gifts seems like a natural choice for Christians. But there are many times in life when it is hard to be thankful - times of disappointment, grief, and spiritual drought. The book of Philippians guides us towards habits of thanksgiving that can last through our whole lives, despite our circumstances. This 15 day series invites you to develop these habits of a thankful heart.

"Be still, and know that I am God;" (PSALM 46:10a). Many Christians are familiar with this verse, but do we really understand it? This exhortation applies when we are distracted by our successes, as when we are fearful and disquieted by some troublesome news. We must learn to quiet ourselves by opening God’s Word and gaining His perspective in both cases.

Paul wrote the book of Philippians to the church in Philippi around 60 A.D., and it's filled with verses of thanksgiving and joy. And even though Paul wrote what is now considered one of the most joyful books in the Bible, he wrote it while in prison. He didn't let his circumstances stop him from rejoicing and giving gratitude to God, and neither should we. As we read Philippians, we're challenged to follow Paul's example of joy no matter the situation, ultimately learning to follow Jesus with our hearts and our lives.

Paul is in prison, and his situation seems hopeless. And yet, he rejoices? For good reason, the letter to the Philippians is known as the "Epistle of Joy." Paul invites us into his inner world, showing how a peace and joy that surpass all understanding are possible through a relationship with Jesus (cf. Philippians 4:7). This 17-day reading plan will guide you through the letter to the Philippians—ideal for personal or group study. Be encouraged anew to fix your eyes on Christ, no matter your current situation.

Our earthly lives are a journey, and God’s guidance system enables us to avoid many detours along the way. We remain on the best road home when we allow God’s word to be our guidance system through the Holy Spirit.

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.
