Philippian commentary

This link may point you in the right direction for starting a more in depth reading on the book of Philippians.  It's a commentary by Gordon Fee, one volume in the IVP New Testament Commentary series.  It's a bit older, but you may recall from previous posts that I had read a great book called "How to Read the Bible for All Its Worth, which was co-authored by Gordon Fee and Douglas Stuart.  I was a fan of that book, so Fee's commentary on Philippians seemed like a great place to start!

Old habits

Well, it's certainly been a while!  Whoever said old habits die hard was wrong - either that, or this daily bible reading habit was not an old one.  I must admit, I've been struggling to keep up with the regime we created back in September.  Granted, I have been quite busy lately, but that's not much of an excuse.
Here's the latest news flash - since the bible reading plan was so successful, at least in keeping us on top of reading the bible, I've decided to do another plan of sorts so that we can still try and stay accountable in studying the bible.
The next plan is to study Philippians.  That involves more than just reading the text.  We're going to look more heavily into the history of Philippi, read some commentaries on this book, and find out what others have said about Paul's letter to this church.  We won't be reading large chunks of it at a time, like with the previous reading plan, so there likely won't be a daily post.  That's not to say you shouldn't check back here daily for more news!  As you read along in Philippians, feel free to leave your own comments on this book, and how Paul's words to them may be affecting you.
