A 40-Day Bible Study on Philippians

“For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” —Philippians 1:21

Paul’s attitudes about life and death were transformed by the gospel. Jesus’s death and resurrection defeated death and gave us hope. In Paul’s letter to the Philippians, he exhorts us to adopt the mind of Christ so that we too can have supernatural hope and joy.

Philippians: A 40-Day Bible Study is meditative, gospel-centered, practical, and prayerful. Over forty days, you will:

• Read and reflect on Philippians
• Meditate on Jesus and the good news
• Pray through Philippians
• Apply God’s word to your life

Planted in the Word

Praise for the Planted in the Word Series

I cannot think of a greater gift to the church than a biblically rooted devotional series, which spans the entire New Testament. The Planted in the Word series will nourish the faith of Christians in a profound way for many years to come.

—R. Albert Mohler, president, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Kentucky

“This daily devotional is something I’ve longed for. It is expositional, theological, and practical as it walks verse by verse through a book of the Bible in just 40 days. With such an outstanding stable of contributors, it is certain to become widely used in the days to come.

—Daniel L. Akin, president, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, North Carolina

I’m excited to place these valuable tools in the hands of our church members, knowing they will be well-equipped to grow in their faith.

—Jason Dees, senior pastor, Christ Covenant, Atlanta
