The Joy of Living for Christ /// Philippians 1: 18-30

Paul’s joy in Philippians is rooted not in comfort or circumstances but in the exaltation of Christ, whether through life, suffering, or death. Writing from prison, Paul encourages the church to rejoice, emphasizing that gospel partnerships, faithful endurance, and unwavering focus on Christ bring lasting joy. He challenges believers to abandon “comfortable Christianity” and instead live with the resilient mindset of “Christ at all costs,” finding joy even in suffering for His name.
