Kay © iStock.com/nullplus Share Post Email Advertise on TGC “It feels so nice to finally stop and catch my breath.” Can you remember the last time you had a moment like that? For some of us, it’s been a while. In our hard-working, highly productive culture, we can sometimes feel like exhausted swimmers swept downstream in a fast-moving river, fighting to keep our heads above water, gasping for air. We get up early and stay up late. We never waste a minute. Our schedule is full, running here, running there, running late, running to catch up, running on empty, until we collapse in utter exhaustion. Underneath the satisfaction of being hard-working, hard-playing people is a weariness that’s desperate for the pace to relent so we can rest and recharge. Deep down, we’re  dying  to slow down and take a break. We keep telling ours...

Introduction ("The Church That Lives Worthy of the Gospel of Christ")

  Introduction     For me, "Philippians" is something special.  The reason is that when I studied Th.M. (Master of Theology) at Fuller Theological Seminary, I wrote my thesis based on Philippians 2:1-4.  Before I started writing the thesis, I went up to Professor Seyoon Kim, who was my supervisor at that time, and told him that I was going to write my thesis on Philippians 2:1-4.  When he heard it, he told me that there was nothing much to write on that passage.  Nevertheless, I wrote my thesis based on that passage because I was interested in the ecclesiology.  So in order to write a thesis based on Philippians 2:1-4, I read many articles and books regarding that passage and the book of Philippians as a whole.  As I was doing it, I got more interested in the book of Philippians.  In the process, I read the whole commentary "Paul's Letter to the Philippians"(New International Greek Testament) written by...
