Philippians - New language
'Do everything without grumbling or arguing',
says Paul to the Philippians. It's an issue that has plagued the people
of God for hundreds of years, and is still an area that trip up many of
us and leave us without credibility in the public eye.

Philippians - New default

Philippians - New attitude
Studies show that the young generation believe that financial independence is true success and the best way to achieve this is to be at the top of a major corporation. They view any relationship that slows their ascent up the corporate ladder as a drag on their success and are willing to do whatever it takes to take their place at the helm of society.

Philippians - New community
We significantly compromise our chances of maturing in God if we live disconnected from the local church. Grace and peace are experienced in community, the good work He began comes to completion in community, you are carried in the hearts of elders and deacons in community. This is a huge blight on modern Christianity, where so many saints live and think they do just fine as lone rangers.
