In this sermon on Philippians 1:19-26, Deacon Marshall Segal expounds further upon the implications of Paul’s passion for the glory of God magnified through the advance of the gospel. In this passage, verse 21, Paul writes a verse familiar to many of us ... “for to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” But do we really understand both sides of this precious, life-altering (and death-altering) verse?

In this sermon on Philippians 4:8-9, Pastor Mike Schumann expounds upon Paul’s exhortation to think about the things that are worthy of praise. In a world that gets it backwards, we should think about these things because setting our minds upon these things will build our character and, like Paul, our identity will be as Jesus worshippers, joyful servants, generous disciplers, and welcoming witnesses.
Character Matters

In this sermon, Pastor Jonathan Parnell expounds upon Philippians 4:4-7 in which Paul exhorts us with three character qualities – joy, gentleness, and peace. We want to be a people growing in spiritual joy, obvious gentleness, and an inner peace. And it’s because of Christ Jesus that we are able to do so. It’s because of God’s love that he is still working on us.
Agree in the Lord

In this sermon on Philippians 4:2-3, Pastor Jonathan Parnell highlights three observations in these verses that are relevant for our life together as a local church. With the disagreement between Euodia and Syntyche, Paul teaches us that local church unity really matters, it is owned by everyone, and local church members’ names are written in the book of life.
