Being a Part of Something Big

Joy comes from being a part of something bigger than ourselves.

What we are a part of is a partnership.

What we are a part of is more important than the part we play.

There is One Who has taken the humblest part that we might have a part in the joy of the gospel.

These are the four points I made in Sunday's message. I offer them here by way of review. Based on Philippians 1:12-18, they capture an outlook on life that sets direction and purpose for all we do. If you're interested go to www.trinityfel.org to listen to the message in full.

Whoever you are and whatever church you are a part of, my simple word to you today is this: do not shrink life down to your own little world. God is up to something huge, and He invites you to share the joy of being a part of it. Seek counsel from pastor, spouse, and members of your local church, to find out what part that might be.

Then go for the joy!
