But I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, who is also your messenger and minister to my need; because he was longing for you all and was distressed because you had heard that he was sick. For indeed he was sick to the point of death, but God had mercy on him, and not on him only but also on me, so that I would not have sorrow upon sorrow. Therefore I have sent him all the more eagerly so that when you see him again you may rejoice and I may be less concerned about you. Receive him then in the Lord with all joy, and hold men like him in high regard; because he came close to death for the work of Christ, risking his life to complete what was deficient in your service to me.

Through this plan, we read Philippians 2 to understand the message Paul was getting across to the church. Seeing things in their proper perspective can change our thinking and, ultimately, our responses to the things around us. Paul, in his letter, brings perspective to who we are, resulting in how we should behave when we choose a life in Christ.
4 Days
Working from home? Isolated from your community? In this 4-day plan, you’ll read through the book of Philippians (which Paul wrote from prison) to find biblical perspective, hope, and instruction for how we should work during the COVID-19 crisis.
Infinitum is a way of life centered on following Jesus by loving God and loving others by emphasizing the habits and disciplines of surrender, generosity, and mission. We aim to see the Bible and the world through these Jesus-colored lenses.
Known as “the epistle of joy,” Philippians is full of encouragement and hope. Although imprisoned in Rome, Paul rejoices at the gospel’s advancement. Philippians reminds us that joy is not dependent upon circumstances. Instead, joy is rooted in the reality that “He who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ” (Philippians 1:6).
