Below the Surface
I'm pretty excited about this series in Philippians.
When I thought I was going to do further research in New Testament studies, it was Philippians that drew my attention. In four short chapters, it bubbles with joy in the midst of sorrow, purpose and meaning in the midst of confusion and conflict, and the liberating truth that knowing Jesus is of surpassing worth compared to even the best things we have otherwise in life.
And as a precursor, Acts 16, the account of the founding of the Church at Philippi, has gripping stuff.
You can also see here the publicity that our esteemed Princeton seminary intern Marc Choi put together for the men's sessions in midtown, and we'll also have coed studies downtown. Looking forward to it.
What's your favourite bit of Philippians, if you have one, gentle reader?
