Grasping at Straws

August 7, 2022 • Nathan Logsdon • Philippians 4:1–9

Give

The Gospel is always within reach when we let go of futile beliefs. Sometimes the best help is the help we didn’t know we needed. How to stop grasping for straws and take hold of the Gospel: choose joy, lead with gentleness, and lean into prayer. Take inventory of your highest influences.

Gospel Partnership

June 5, 2022 • Nathan Logsdon • Philippians 1:1–11

Joy thrives in community. To multiply joy, love with purpose, discern what is best, live sincere, and point to God's glory. God works out our salvation and completes the work in our lives.

Unfettered Joy

June 12, 2022 • Nathan Logsdon • Philippians 1:12–26

Joy is independent of our circumstances. Joy won’t be stifled when the Gospel matters most. When your life is not your own, the reality of the end generates joy. Joy is a weapon to find resilience and grit. Choosing Jesus produces joy.

Worthy Gospel

June 19, 2022 • Nathan Logsdon • Philippians 1:27–30

Life worth living is for a worthy Gospel. A worthy Gospel brings opposition. The Gospel is good, settles a sin issue and is worth our devotion.
