Dear Family and Friends,
The Way of Jesus often seems paradoxical. The least are the greatest, the weak are being made strong, the servants are the heroes, outsiders become insiders. Paul is writing this joy-filled letter from a prison! Join us for a six-week adventure, as we put on the lens of Philippians and learn that a life lived in the reality of the Kingdom of God is a life that is markedly different from the one our world prompts us or even pushes us to live. In the midst of all the crazy stuff going on around us, we are peculiar people, living in a reality that allows us to be joyful, experience peace beyond human comprehension, and live in uncommon unity. Following and living for Jesus in a post-Covid world is living life as a paradox, which when we come to think of it, is what it always meant to live in the reality of the Kingdom of God.
