You Can’t Have Unity without… | Philippians 2:1-2
If, in being united with Christ, you have…
any encouragement
any comfort from His love
any fellowship with the Spirit
any tenderness or compassion
Then, make my joy complete!
by being like-minded
having the same love
being one in spirit
and purpose
Here’s How! | Philippians 2:3-4
Don’t be selfish or conceited!

Psalm 1: The Blessed Life | September 22, 2019
1 Blessed is the man
who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
2 but his delight is in the law of the LORD,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
3 He is like a tree
planted by streams of water
that yields its fruit in its season,
and its leaf does not wither.
In all that he does, he prospers.
4 The wicked are not so,
but are like chaff that the wind drives away.
5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;
6 for the LORD knows the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish. (ESV)

We’re In This Together | Philippians 18b-26
I need your prayers and the Holy Spirit
I expect to persevere no matter what!
If I live… great! If I die… even better!
You will have more joy if I live… and you need me.
I’m convinced, therefore , that I will live.
Whatever happens… follow me! | Philippians 27-30
Live lives worthy of the Gospel!
There must be unity… whether I’m with you or not.
Don’t be afraid of those who oppose you.
This will be a sign to them!
Jesus made it possible to be saved by Him, but also to suffer for Him
I’ve been where you are…
I’m still there…
Let’s make sure we still have unity.
