Written from prison, Philippians is the most joyful letter in the New Testament — a tender thank-you to a beloved church and a call to humble unity, modeled supremely by Christ who "emptied himself" and was exalted as Lord. Joy in any circumstance is its heartbeat.
“For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.”
“Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus.”
“Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.”
“I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”
