Teaching | Understanding Philippians: A Prayer of Gratitude (Philippians 1:1-11)

Joy and suffering—our culture sees them as opposites, but Paul’s letter to the Philippians tells a different story. Writing from a Roman prison, Paul proclaims a joy unshaken by chains, trials, or hardship. How? Because Christ, the true source of lasting joy, dwelled in him.

In this episode, we unpack Philippians 1:1-11 and discover how gospel partnership, prayer, and God’s ongoing work in us transform the way we experience joy—even in the darkest moments.
