When our boys lived with us they often prepared and cooked their own meals. If Gloria told them once, she told them 100 times that, “I don’t care about the mess you make cooking, just be SURE you clean up afterwards!” And, usually they did, albeit not to Gloria’s standards perhaps, but they tried nonetheless! Similar to this is the exhortation of Paul in Philippians 1:27 where he calls the church to do this one thing above all else: to live a life worthy of the Gospel. What intrigued me about this exhortation in particular is discerning what that actually means in real life and how we are to hear Paul today. And that will be the focus for us on Sunday as we unpack three truths of living a life worthy of the Gospel.
