Philippians 4:14-23 The happiest people on this planet are not the wealthiest people but the most generous people. Some are rich and some are poor, but most have a moderate income, and have learned how to find JOY in Generosity.
Joy in Discontentment
Phil 4:10-13 The Apostle Paul has learned to be content in all circumstances. Now it is our turn as Fully Devoted Followers of Jesus Christ to learn how to be content and experience JOY in Discontentment.
Joy in Anxiety
Philippians 4:1-9 Anxiety issues in our modern times are out of control.

Joy in Conflict
Philippians 2:1-11 Conflict resolution skills are in short supply in our American Culture.
