What’s up with Paul? What’s his story? Come on—he’s in jail. And he’s writing about joy and rejoicing in the midst of suffering? In his own discomfort he could have thought, It’s not fair. It’s not right. I deserve better treatment. How does he do It? What’s his secret? How is it that he can calmly encourage the Philippian followers of Jesus to imitate Christ while dealing with their own suffering (refer to Philippians 1:29-30)? Pastor Evan sheds light on Paul’s “secret” by closely examining some simple concepts in Paul’s letter (chapter 2 of Philippians) on how to conduct oneself in a godly manner during difficult times: be of one mind (v2), stay focused on Jesus (vv 3-4), stay humble (vv3-4, 8), maintain a Christlike attitude (vv 5-7), die to self (vv3-4, 6-8). Evan reminds us that it is not all about me and my comfort. It’s about being Jesus to others.
