From beatings to imprisonment, Paul endured an enormous amount of suffering for the cause of the Lord Jesus Christ. Overwhelming trials had taught the Apostle to be content in whatever circumstance he found himself. Through his experiences he was able to encourage the Philippians to cultivate a similar lifestyle. His letter to the Philippian church is a testimony to his courageous attitude. Even though he was in prison, facing an uncertain future, Paul wrote this letter of gratitude expressing an abundant joy in what God was accomplishing through the Philippians.
Join us every Wednesday night at CCC in the month of October as we explore the depth of God's grace from the book of Philippians. Our guest lecturer for this month will be former pastor Tony Ledbetter. Bible study begins at 6:30 p.m.
