Philippians 3

I have been studying Philippians one-on-one with one of my friends from my Community Group this month. It's very difficult for me to stay in the Word by myself, so I have found that I am most successful and disciplined when I have a sister in Christ to keep me accountable. So in the past 10 years or so, I have participated in many different Bible studies with friends where we read through and study a book of the Bible. My friend recommended we study Philippians, and I am glad she did, because it is such a powerful book of the Bible. This past week, we just finished studying Chapter 3 and I wanted to share some of Paul's powerful words and messages from this chapter. Enjoy.

Breathe Death to Life

Passion 2013 is going on right now from January 1-4 in Atlanta. Passion Conferences are more than just conferences. Passion is a movement raising up college-aged kids across the nation to spread the fame of Jesus Christ around the globe. I was watching the first main session tonight live online here (http://livelink.268generation.com/). The passage that Louie Giglio used in his message was the story of the Valley of Dry Bones in Ezekiel 37, when God breathes life into the dry bones. As I enter into 2013, this is a great theme passage for my life. I believe in a God that can breathe life into death, breathe life into addictions, breathe life into brokenness, breath life into depression. I believe it, and I will declare it over my life in 2013.
