Oasis Church Birmingham: Talks

Paul writes his letter to the Philippians from the depths of a Roman jail, awaiting sentencing for preaching the good news about Jesus that might end in his execution. Despite that though, Philippians is a book full of joy, comfort, warmth, and connection. The key, as Paul reveals, and as Oasis will be exploring through this series, is that Jesus is enough, full stop. This week, Alice continues the series by posing the question: "What am I living for?". This question helps us understand Paul's comments in this chapter as he ponders whether (as he awaits a sentencing which may lead to his execution) it would be better for him to die and be with Christ, or to live and continue in his work.
