Philippians 4:1-9 - Christian Endurance




The Indy 500 is the largest sporting venue in the world. It has a seating capacity over 235,000. Add infield seating capacity, and they can handle over 400,000 people. While everyone loves a good race, the only way you can place in a race is you need to finish the race. Blowing an engine or crashing into a wall leaves you with nothing. The Christian life is like the Indy 500. What matters more than starting the Christian life is enduring to the end and finishing the Christian life. As Paul begins to wind up his letter to the Philippians, he gives them five hurdles they need to conquer if they are going to stand firm in Christ for the long haul. They are the same challenges we face if we want to be faithful to Jesus until the end of our days. Join us as we learn how to stand strong for Christ until we finish the race of life.

Many who live on the coast enjoy surfing the waves. Many of us forget Jesus was also a surfer, but he didn't need a board! As we continue our study in the Gospel of Mark, Jesus reveals more of his glory and love for the apostles as he comes to their rescue walking on top of the waves in a storm.
