Surpassing Worth
I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. – Philippians 3:8 (ESV)
Holding Fast the Word of Life
By H. M. Coker
Among a crooked and twisted generation, Christians shine as lights in the world, holding fast to the Word of life (Philippians 2:15b-16a). But how can you hold fast to what you do not know?
In Holding Fast the Word of Life you will cultivate the habit of spending daily time in the Word while systematically studying the book of Philippians. Each chapter introduces a fundamental skill of Bible study, such as interpretation, application, and cross-referencing. You will then immediately put the skill into practice in a six-week guided study of Philippians.
The Bible study skills you learn in this book will equip you to study with confidence; and the truths you learn in Philippians will transform your life that you may live in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ (Philippians 1:27).
Welcome to Surpassing Worth
As you read this blog my prayer is you will take what is good and leave what is bad. There is no perfect word except for the perfect Word of God. So, as you read my words here, please test them for yourself against the Word of God and only hold fast to what is good. Thank you for walking with me as I do my best to rightly handle the Word of God and while I still press on to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
