Citizens of Heaven

Aug 17, 2025    Pastor Ryan Hurd

In the ninth week of A Fresh Wind Church's "Joy Full" series on Philippians, the sermon "Citizens of Heaven" recaps Paul's joyful resilience in prison and key themes from the letter's first chapters, then delves into Philippians 3:17–4:1 to call believers to imitate mature Christians like Paul—who follows Christ—while warning against "enemies of the cross" who chase earthly appetites, glory in shame, and face destruction. The message challenges listeners to stand firm, reject worldly distractions, and eagerly await Jesus' return, fostering deeper pursuit of faith and purpose.
