Tonight we finished our study of Philippians 4 with a short walk through and discussion. Then we took some time to walk through Mark 11:1-10 in observance of Palm Sunday. So we've posted two podcasts, one for each of those teachings.
Here are the discussion points for Philippians 4:
What is the difference between your personal praying style and praying as Paul describes in vs. 6, 7?Chime in. Ready...go!
Paul teaches the church that their gifts to support his ministry work are actually gifts to God. This is much like giving to the church. How, if at all, does this change your perspective on giving?
What thoughts or insights have you gained from our study of Philippians? How has it impacted you?

As I stood by a hospital bed last evening trying to say the right things to a friend and fellow Journey family member who had a very big heart around 6:30 yesterday, I found myself praying that God would comfort Doug in the way Paul said He would. I found myself praying for the strength and wisdom for us to do what was right for Doug in his time of need. And I found myself praying that the doctors and professional staff would have the knowledge to fix the problems that caused the heart attack. This morning I've been thinking about all that in the context of our discussion on prayer. There's a comfort associated with prayer that I think comes from knowing that you've put the problem/situation in the hands of God. What more can one possibly do? By the way, as we left the hospital last night, Doug was stable and in fairly good spirits - given the circumstances.
