Living on Earth; Longing for Heaven - Philippians 1:22-26

Update: 2017-07-09

Description

Knowing what Paul knew about heaven made him think very differently about earth. As Thomas Watson said, "Spiritual things satisfy; the more of heaven is in us, the less earth will content us." It's like a kid eating his vegetables while eyeing the chocolate cake promised after the meal (the salad becomes a means to an end). Jesus taught us to pray, "Thy kingdom come," indicating we should be longing for heaven. So how do we effectively live on earth with heaven ahead?

This teaching is from our series Technicolor Joy: A Study through Philippians with Skip Heitzig from Calvary Albuquerque.
