Philippians has been called "The Epistle of Joy" and Paul's warmest and most personal letter. Surprisingly, this letter was written by the apostle Paul to Philippian believers who lived with circumstances few would equate with joy. However, Paul's words reveal his secret to contentment: the understanding of all Christ has done and is able to do for every believer.
In Philippians: A Self-Guided Study for Individuals or Groups, author Diane Junker offers a chapter-by-chapter journey through the book of Philippians. The questions are designed to help discover the meaning of the Bible passage by looking at one verse, one phrase, or even one word at a time. The questions and helpful commentary quotes in this study guide help you uncover the meaning of scripture and encourage you to apply these treasures of truth to your life.
These words of wisdom carry a powerful meaning for us today as we face many of the same obstacles and pressures these early believers faced. In this letter, we find ourselves, like them, being led to the source of joy that can be ours.
