Philippians Bible Study Guide plus Streaming Video: Embracing Joy (40 Days Through the Book)

Joy is everywhere in the book of Philippians. The emotion that Paul poured out in his letter to the church in Philippi shines through in every one of its 104 verses...and Paul wrote it as a prisoner chained to a Roman guard.

What gives the Apostle Paul such resounding joy, even in the face of suffering and persecution? In this six-session study (streaming video included), bestselling author and pastor Mark Batterson serves as a tour guide on the letter to the Philippians; uncovering the major themes of joy, gratitude, unity, and purpose found in this inspiring letter.

This study guide has everything you need for a full Bible study experience, including:

• The study guide itself—a 40 Day reading plan through Philippians with discussion and personal reflection questions, video notes, and a leader's guide.
• An individual access code to stream all six video sessions online (you don't need to buy a DVD!).

The heartbeat of Philippians is for believers to have a Jesus-centered vision of life: a radical vision that, when seen fully, enables us to embrace joy no matter the circumstances.

40 Days Through the Book series:

Each of the studies in this series, taught by a different pastor or Bible teacher on a specific book of the Bible, is designed to help you more actively engage with God's Word by understanding its background and culture and applying it in a fresh way to your life. Throughout each study, you'll be encouraged to read through the corresponding book in the New Testament at least once during the course of 40 days.
