4. Philippians 1:12-18
Joy in Proclaiming The Gospel
Pastor Phil Ballmaier
Calvary Chapel Elk Grove
4-16-23
Pastor Phil normally approaches the study of The Bible verse-by-verse, but The Lord has laid it on his heart to study The Book of Philippians topically.
Today Pastor Phil talks about the Apostle Paul's ability, despite being in prison and in chains, to praise The Lord and use every opportunity to share the Gospel with everyone he met, including his captors. We can only hope and pray that God would give us the grace and empower us to give Him glory in our afflictions, trials and hardships — and cease the moment to further the Gospel.
The Book of Philippians was written by the Apostle Paul while he was imprisoned in Rome, likely around 61 or 62 AD. It is one of the four 'prison epistles' that Paul penned while in captivity. He counted it a joy to allow God to work everything for his good—even imprisonment. The Book of Philippians teaches us the secret of having joy in a less than perfect world.
Calvary Chapel Elk Grove is a non-denominational fellowship located in Roselle, a northwest suburb of Chicago in Illinois.
