Given his personal situation, it seems hard to believe Philippians is Paul’s most upbeat letter. But it is. Radiating confidence, warmth, and joy, this short epistle reminds us that what we are and what we have transcends the inevitable stresses and strains that accompany our earthly pilgrimage. By his inspired words as well as his inspiring example, Paul helps us understand the difference between the temporary nature of happiness and the permanent state of joy. This is a letter for our times. Please join us at 9:15 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall for this study led by Pastor Joel Leyrer.
