We are continuing the blog series with content from biblical scholar Scot McKnight, where we'll be sharing his insights and wisdom on the book of Philippians |
We open this study session of Philippians by starting with chapter 4:10–20 that sets the context before us. At the heart of Paul's letter is that he and they share a common life, and this passage puts into words major elements of that common life. Not the least of which is generosity with resources, which created a special bond with the Philippians and Paul and his co-workers. From this point on in the letter, every time we see the word "common life" or "fellowship" we need to have in mind the tangible, generous gifts at work in such a fellowship of believers. |

Five years ago, two noteworthy things happened to me. The first thing was night terrors. Despite prayer and counseling, I still sometimes experience them. They come as bad dreams, or sometimes I am simply jolted awake by fear. Often, as I pray through them, God speaks to me both during and after them. I am only able to go back to sleep with His assurance that He has me and my family, and we are okay. Around the same time the night terrors started, another event of spiritual significance took place. Similar to the night terrors, this appeared to come out of the blue. This time, though, it was a gift from God. He spoke to me about something very specifically while I was in church. |

This book leads the modern believer to a place of release, relief, and reliance upon the omniscience of God. Inspired by book of Nahum, God Knows details the behind-the-scenes picture we are missing, what His great knowing entails, and how his omniscience provides daily perspective to bring the healing and peace we are all desperate to find. |

Do you know a Teacher who you'd like to encourage? All the way from coloring inside the lines to calculus, teachers have given us the tools to thrive. For those in need of a little peace and renewal, Max Lucado points to the Teacher who offered just that. |
