Joy instead of Anxiety

March 6, 2016 Speaker: Kevin Deyette Series: Joy

Passage: Philippians 4:2–9

Sermon Title: Joy Instead of Anxiety
Text: Philippians 4:2-9


Notes:

Life happens. Life brings anxiety.

Life happens + your response = reacting to your circumstances (anxiety)
Life happens + JESUS + your response = responding to Jesus.

The goal is to stop reacting to your circumstances and start responding to Jesus.

8 disciplines to battle reacting to our circumstances:
1. Rejoice in the Lord (v4)
2. Respond reasonably (v5)
3. Know that Jesus is always with you (v5)
4. Pray (v6)
5. Choose not to be anxious (v6)
6. Meditate (v8)
7. Live according to your theology (v9)
8. Accept the peace of God (v7, 9)
