Philippians 1:27-30 Clausible Deniability by Tanner Versage
Guest Preacher Tanner Versage preaches on our great privilege to not only believe in Jesus but also to suffer with him. That suffering is put into pithy perspective by "Replacements" quarterback Shane Falco with his inspirational charge: Pain Heals; Chicks Dig Scars; Glory Lasts Forever… most true in our communal walk with Jesus.
“Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come and see you or only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand firm in the one Spirit, striving together as one for the faith of the gospel 28 without being frightened in any way by those who oppose you. This is a sign to them that they will be destroyed, but that you will be saved—and that by God. 29 For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for him, 30 since you are going through the same struggle you saw I had, and now hear that I still have.”
