Bruce and Marie Hafen: Understanding and Navigating Stages of Faith, Pt. 1

As our thoughts turn to Christ this Easter season, we hope these words of faith will help you feel closer than ever to God.

42: “I Can Do All Things through Christ Which Strengtheneth Me” (Philippians, Colossians)

Where did Paul write some of his happiest letters? Not from the comforts of a nice home or amid the beauty of a countryside in spring. Many of the Apostle’s most uplifting words were penned in prison, including the beloved line, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” Perhaps Paul was more keenly aware of Christ’s strength during his time in need. In this week’s lesson, we are diving into Philippians and Colossians where Paul reminds us—especially those who feel trapped—that to live is to love Christ.
