Key Passage: Philippians 1:12-26

Key Idea: Part of the reason why Paul had such joy in his difficult situation was because of an overwhelming confidence that he had, that no matter what he went through, it was going to work for the good of the gospel. As we lift our gaze off of our individual circumstances, and place them on what God is doing in this season, we get a picture of the bigger purpose in all of it. There is always a bigger picture going on, and we have two options: resist it or join with God in it.
