Listen to this message

What does it truly mean to pour out your life for Christ? In this message from the "Invitation to Joy" series through Philippians, we explore three key Greek words: agape, koinonia, and kenoo. These reveal the heart of what it means to follow Jesus with everything we have. Walking through Philippians chapters 2, 3, and 4, this message unpacks how Christ emptied Himself and became obedient to the point of death, and how we are called to do the same. 

You'll be encouraged to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, to be anxious for nothing, and to discover that when you empty yourself for God's purposes, He fills you with an inexpressible joy. Whether you've been walking with the Lord for 40 years or are just beginning to sense His presence, this message will challenge you to find your place in the body of Christ and start pouring out for His glory.
