Product Description

Description: The temptation to give up while running the race of faith is all too real. Despite our best attempts to be faithful witnesses of the gospel of Christ, we oftentimes feel overwhelmed by discouragement and doubt. Empowered by Joy is a devotional inspired by Paul's letter to the Philippians. It focuses on how we can enjoy an endless stream of joy through our relationship with Christ and thus experience power to fulfill our calling to make known the good news of God! Endorsements: ""Empowered by Joy makes the message of Philippians come alive! Dr. Jeon's devotionals remind us that Saint Paul's messages is just as urgent today as it was for the early Christians. You will never read Philippians the same way again."" --Alex Lee, Assistant Professor of Law, USC Gould School of Law ""As Christians, we all need encouragement, and nowhere in the New Testament will you find more encouragement than in Paul's Letter to the Philippians. Dr. Jeon's book Empowered by Joy opens our minds and hearts to the great joy that flows from the encouragement embodied in this letter. I strongly recommend Dr. Jeon's book for all who are looking to find God's daily encouragement."" --Hugh Whelchel, Executive Director, Institute of Faith Work & Economics Paul Jeon's book Empowered by Joy: Reflections on Paul's Letter to the Philippians, is an outstanding devotional work. Unlike many devotional books of its length, Dr. Jeon focuses on the interpretation of the passage and explains this through a clear exposition of the passage. In addition, his questions for reflection are extremely thoughtful and relevant to anyone in the 21st century. This devotional will be a true ""joy"" for anyone to go through for growth in his Christian life. --Benjamin C. Shin is associate professor of Bible Exposition at Talbot School of Theology, Biola University. ""Dr. Jeon has written a devotional in God's own words for God's own ends . . . there is reflection and real-world application worthy of a devotional intended to edify and empower Christian (servant) leaders-in-the-making, but that is done without forsaking a deeper dive into the text. In an age of sound bites and 140-character limits, it would have been easy, especially in a devotional, to choose feel-good slogans over serious study. Thankfully, Dr. Jeon doesn't succumb."" --from the Foreword by Paul E. Kim, Faculty Member, GLDI About the Contributor(s): Paul S. Jeon (PhD, Catholic University of America) is the lead pastor of NewCity Church in northern Virginia.
