What is it that makes life meaningful? Many people take pride in their ancestry, credentials and accomplishments. In his letter to the followers of Christ at Philippi, the Apostle Paul points out that however great our earthly attainments might be, they are nothing compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ and becoming like Him. Only in Christ do we find true fulfillment. When we emulate Christ's example of humility and sacrifice God exalts us far beyond anything we could ever achieve on our own. It is only in Christ that we learn the secret of contentment-regardless of circumstances.Paul's letter to the Philippians is very practical. And it is still as relevant today as when he first penned it. The 13 classroom tested studies in this volume not only explore the meaning of what Paul wrote, they show how his words apply to us.
