2025 Episode 25, The Letter of Paul to the Philippians, and Colossians 1

In this episode, Tony explores three major themes woven throughout Paul’s letter to the Philippians: joy, sanctification, and advancing the gospel.

Tony examines how Paul not only encourages his readers in these themes, but also embodies them, living a life fully devoted to Jesus. Even while joyfully writing from prison, Paul sees how everything he’s experienced serves to advance the gospel.

As the episode moves into Colossians 1, Tony highlights Paul’s powerful teaching on the supremacy of Christ—how God was pleased not only to dwell in Jesus but also to reconcile all things to Himself through His blood.
