The Daily Discipleship Podcast

Often we are presented with just one view of the end-times as if it is the only reasonable view, yet, some of the passages to which we point may be to the exclusion of other passages or we may not consider other approaches to the passages at hand.  What are the 3 or 4 predominant view of eschatology of which we should be aware?

Can you have contentment in the midst of some of life's most challenging circumstances?  The Apostle Paul did, and in Philippians he teaches us how.  Listen

God gives grace.  God gives peace.  God works through people.  For those of us who are called into full-time vocational Gospel work, it is our partners who put wind in our sails and add joy to our souls.  I am thankful for all my listeners who partner with me in the Global Gospel of Jesus. 

In his writings, Paul always shared his gratitude and his prayers for his Gospel partners.  What is my prayer for you?  What has God promised to do in your life in this passage that can give you strength?

Even though Paul was imprisoned, the Gospel was not bound.  It continued to be spread.  In our day, the Gospel is not bound, and even though it is sometimes delivered by those with less than stellar motives (money), it is still be delivered.  May you be emboldened to share the Gospel today, and may we rejoice that it is being preached regardless of motives. 

The apostle Paul could have pointed to many things which made life full, yet, he pointed to Christ as his pleasure, desire, and delight in life.  Are you and I growing into that type of proximity to Christ?

This passage instructs us in how we are to live in relationship with one another.  It has implications for church, home, or any relationship, but most especially among the Church.  All rooted in Christlikeness.

Christ is the prototype for the Christian life, while is much more than an example (He is the perfect God-Man, the Savior, the Lord), He is the example set before us which we are to emulate.
