My Eager Expectation and Hope: Honoring Christ in Life

April 24, 2016 Series: Philippians: On Mission For Christ, Together

Scripture: Philippians 1:18–26

What is your driving passion in life? Many have a hard time answering that question. Not so the apostle Paul! For him, magnifying Christ was his singular focus. So much so that he could say that for him, “To live is Christ.” This phrase serves as a shorthand for his robust understanding of the believer’s union with Christ as both an objective and subjective reality. In this message we learn the joyous freedom that comes from a life dedicated to the glorification of Jesus above all other pursuits as we describe three characteristics of a life focused on Christ. May we say with Paul that for us too, to live is Christ!
