#488 - Joby Martin // Know Him, Not Just About Him

2026-11-1307:33

We drill down on Philippians 3:10 and ask the question that won’t let us off easy: do we actually know Jesus, or do we only know about him. We talk resurrection power, why suffering is part of following Christ, and how real stories of pain can produce a fearless, Christ-centered testimony. • Reading Philippians 3:1–11 and counting everything as loss for Christ • The difference between knowing about Jesus and knowing him relationally • Matthew 7 and the danger of a religious ...

#487 - Joby Martin // Works-Based Righteousness Is A Lie

2026-11-1206:35

We read Philippians 3:1-11 and get brutally honest about how easy it is to trust our religious performance instead of trusting Jesus. We unpack why Paul counts his best efforts as loss and why the full gospel includes both forgiveness and Christ’s righteousness credited to us. • reading Philippians 3 and Paul’s warning against confidence in the flesh • why even an impressive spiritual résumé cannot produce right standing with God • what Paul means by counting everything as l...

#486 - Joby Martin // What If Your Best Effort Still Can’t Save You

2026-11-1105:441

2026-11-1005:47

We read Philippians 3:1–11 and press on Paul’s warning about people who add religious requirements to the finished work of Jesus. We name the “Jesus plus” trap for what it is and point our confidence back to grace through faith that leads to worship and surrender. • reading Philippians 3 and setting the context • Paul’s “look out for the dogs” warning and why it stings • the Judaizers and the false gospel of Jesus plus circumcision • the core claim that Jesus plus noth...

#484 - Joby Martin // Rejoice In The Lord

2026-11-0906:19

We slow down in Philippians 3:1 and challenge ourselves to live like the church is a family we belong to, not a crowd we watch. We also talk about rejoicing in the Lord, how gratitude pushes out entitlement, and why repeating the gospel is meant to keep us safe. • Reading Philippians 3:1-11 to set context for the week • Laughing at Paul’s “finally” and the preacher habit of continuing • Seeing the local church as family and asking if we are truly connected • Shifting t...
