Philippians: Part 3 - Joy in Suffering
Jun 29, 2025 • Pastor Becca Detterman
This week Pastor Becca reflects on Paul’s surprising declaration of joy in the midst of suffering, drawing from Philippians 1:12–26. From a prison cell, Paul writes with hope, courage, and deep affection—reminding us that the gospel doesn’t stall out in hardship, it advances. Hear how Paul’s clarity about life and death—“to live is Christ, and to die is gain”—challenges our desire for control and invites us into deeper trust. Learn why joy isn’t pretending everything’s fine, how honesty opens the door to healing, and how God’s presence transforms even the hardest seasons. Listen in and be encouraged to rejoice, not because of your circumstances, but because you are never alone in them.
