How God’s Work In You Will Never Stop (Philippians 1:3-8)
Paul is on house arrest in Rome. Ten years removed from the Philippians. Awaiting a trial that could end his life. And when he picks up his pen to write to this little church in Macedonia, the first word out of his mouth isn’t fear. It’s joy.
This week we’re in Part 2 of the Stress Less series, walking through Philippians 1:3-8 and unpacking three distinct works of God: what He has done FOR us in salvation, what He is doing IN us through sanctification, and what He is doing THROUGH us in compassion for the body of Christ.
We also dig into why your local church isn’t a nice-to-have, why supplemental ministries like Amen Podcast only function well when believers are rooted in a Bible-teaching congregation, and how the Philippians’ partnership in the gospel made Paul’s imprisonment fruitful instead of futile.
Stick around for After the Amen, where Lokelani shares how this passage connects to motherhood, sanctification through serving others, and the joy of watching God work in the people around you.
Grab your Bible. Open to Philippians 1. Let’s go.
