The Apostle Paul's most personal letter was sent to the Christians of Philippi. This intimate and loving epistle was written to believers who lived in the shadow of the Roman tyrant Nero. Paul himself was in a Roman prison, facing an uncertain future. Surprisingly, he wrote to them of the importance of Christian joy. As they were together in a worshiping community, in the midst of their difficulties, they could experience the joy that Jesus promised those who follow Him. In this pastoral and practical book, David Jeremiah leads readers through the Book of Philippians so that they, too, can learn to experience the joy of the Lord in their daily lives.
