In week four of Citizens & Saints, our series walking through the book of Philippians, Pastor Justin Valiquette teaches from Philippians 1:27-30. Paul gives the church its first command, and it’s the one thing that shapes everything else: live as citizens of heaven in a manner worthy of the gospel. Because Jesus is worthy, we can treasure Him above all things, stand firm together to defend and advance the gospel, and even endure suffering for His sake as a gift of grace. Jesus joyfully suffered in our place, and He invites us to find our deepest joy in Him at any cost.
