we explored Mark 6, examining Jesus's rejection in Nazareth, the sending of the Twelve, the contrast between Herod's failed leadership and Jesus's true shepherding in the feeding of the five thousand, and how the disciples' hardened hearts reveal our own need for faith and grace.
We wrapped up Philippians by exploring unity in Christ, rejoicing and prayerful peace, virtuous focus, learned contentment through Christ’s strength, generous partnership as worship, identity in Christ amid Paul’s imprisonments, the Saul/Paul name usage, and the gospel’s reach—even into Caesar’s household.
When anxiety hits, we usually tell ourselves “faith over fear.” but perhaps God is calling us to something deeper: faith with the fear of the Lord. See how the massive, awesome power of God is actually the perfect resting place for our fearful hearts.
