Philippians (LifeChange Series)
PHILIPPIANS.    Although in prison for proclaiming Jesus Christ, the Apostle Paul writes a joyful letter of encouragement and challenge to his “partners in the gospel,” the Christians at Philippi.  Paul aims to inspire his readers to persevere in the work of Christ, and he tells them how to find peace and contentment in a perilous world.  We, too, can discover the secret of Paul’s joy and experience his triumphant confidence in Christ.    LifeChange Series:  Christians have a lifelong goal: to become like Christ.  This involves change, and change isn’t always easy.  But the more you know of God’s purposes for you, the more you can experience His joy and participate in His plan.      The LifeChange Series of Bible studies on books of the Bible can help you grow in Christlikeness through a life-changing encounter with God’s Word.  You’ll benefit in these important ways:  1) You’ll gain a firm understanding of the book-its historical context, purpose, structure, and meaning;  2) You’ll apply its powerful, relevant wisdom to needs and issues you are currently working through; and  3) You’ll acquire personal study skills and a thirst to return to the book on your own-so you can keep going deeper into its life-transforming truths.
