Published: Aug. 14, 2023, 4:57 a.m.

Christianity may be considered a religion, but foundationally, it is a RELATIONSHIP that we are gifted with in Jesus with the God of the universe. Join Bryan Borden, Youth Minister at Prestoncrest, as he unpacks the first half of Philippians 3 and reveals the importance of our identity in Christ and how it influences our behavior and obedience to Christ. About the series. . . Everyone wants to be happy. People all around us devote incredible amounts of energy, time and money to the pursuit of happiness. It’s been called the American obsession. One author recently called our culture’s fixation on happiness “almost religious.” Despite all the energy poured into the pursuit of happiness, the data says we are trending toward UNHAPPINESS. Choose JOY... because happiness is overrated. In Paul’s letter to the Philippians, we find wisdom and practical tips for choosing JOY... a joy based on a relationship with Jesus, rather than an empty, ill-defined, pursuit based on momentary moods and desires. In this message series from Gordon Dabbs, Ph.D., encounter spiritual truths to unleash the joy of the Lord in your everyday life.
