"Pressing On: Lessons from Philippians for Times of Change" with Colin Towner
Update: 2025-09-14
Description
This is the talk from our 10:45 service on 14 September 2025. The reading was Philippians 1:1-11.
In this talk, the Colin reflects on St Jude's rich heritage of clergy leadership whilst facing an upcoming interregnum. Drawing from Paul's letter to the Philippians, we explore what makes a church community worthy of thanksgiving — being saints together, partnering in the gospel, and pressing on towards spiritual maturity. He challenges us to consider not just what we remember about our former clergy, but what they might remember about us. Through Paul's prayer for the Philippians, we're encouraged to pursue love, knowledge, discernment, and righteousness — not in our own strength, but through Jesus Christ, all for God's glory and praise.
