Description
Followers of Christ will admit that there are certain choice portions in the Word to which they frequently slip away for comfort, encouragement, and inspiration. They study and believe the whole Bible, but often find rest and consolation in particular passages. For many, Philippians is one of the "choice morsels" to which the believer frequently resorts. The very thought of this Epistle seems to remind us of our Lord's words recorded in Mark 6:31 "Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while".

Summary
Everyone loves a winner. Our only problem is figuring out what it means "to win" and what is worth winning in the first place. The apostle Paul's letter to the Philippian Christians is filled with the zest, the motivation, the celebration of a winner even though Paul himself was imprisoned, facing the prospect of a death sentence. Dr. J Allen Blair's concise and challenging devotional commentary helps us discover the real meaning and reason for winning. In our most difficult defeats, we can live as victors through Christ.

Excerpt
Philippians is specifically a believer's book. In this aspect, it is very practical. Most of us are deluged by problems and adversity. There is the constant desire to talk with someone who understands. Paul, the writer of the Epistle, is the one. As you read of the flagellations he suffered for the cause of Christ, you will readily recognize him as a man who knows how to face troubles.
