Good Sunday Morning!
1. Question – Met any cranky Christians lately?
2. Thought – Met any cranky Christians lately? You
know, people who look like they earn their living eating
lemons?
Paul had every excuse to join the fellowship of the
irritable. He was in Rome, and it was hot, dusty, and
muggy. The food was nothing to write home about.
Now, hot weather and bad food are tolerable if you have
your freedom. But Paul did not. He’d been maligned,
beaten, and imprisoned. Yet this short letter to followers
of Jesus in the Greek city of Philippi contains not a hint
of bitterness. In fact, it is the happiest book in the
Bible. Like light, the joy Paul had found was seeping
through cracks in his prison walls.
“Pour a cup of coffee and crack open
Philippians.”
(Phil Callaway, from the Jesus Centered Bible)
