    Dr. Robert Sloan takes you verse by verse through Philippians in this course. He disusses themes of fellowship, Christ and the gospel, unity in the church, suffering, death, resurrection, justification, and more with his engaging presence and clear communication style. The course, among others, helps you to identify the cultural conflicts that were creating adversity and causing anxiety among the Christians at Philippi, Paul’s general argument to the Philippians as to how to respond to the adversities they were facing, explain Paul’s view of what constitutes salvation. He also makes you understand verses that are often misapplied to situations and correctly interpret them based on the context into which Paul’s letter was sent. Dr. Robert Sloan is very experienced and learned scholar and it has been a privilege to hear the words of wisdom from him.
