Give

In this sermon from Philippians 1, Pastor Phil takes us through a lesson in prayer, looking at the motivation and the model for Paul’s prayer for the church. Paul prays for them because of his deep and abiding love, and he prays for the things that ultimately matter the most: that they would grow in Christ’s love, wisdom, and righteousness, and that through their lives Christ would be glorified.
