Introduction

Philippians 2.1
The Christian Service
It is full of hardship, sacrifices and frustration
It can be very lonely , especially to the minister
It can turn a joyful, aspiring person into a gloomy and moody person over time
The Christian’s Attitude Matters
Courage, guts, boldness - are all good attitude and behaviors
passion, excitement
Attitude is about the “Mind”
Attitude = a way of thinking or feeling about something or somebody, that is typically reflected in a person’s behavior
Attitude begins with the mind - you decide what and how to feel about something
Attitude becomes actions - you act on how you feel, what you think
Paul’s Formula
The Christian service is most effective if served with a joyful heart.
The joyful heart in service is the product of right attitudes against 4 "joy-stealers”:
circumstances
people
things
worry
The right attitude to bring into Christian service are:
The Single Mind - against circumstances
The Humble/Submissive Mind - against people
The Spiritual Mind - against things
The Secured Mind - against worries
Main Points
The Single Mind
Joy-stealer No. 1 - Circumstances
Circumstances can be anything, but especially those that frustrate us.
The problem with circumstances is they always happen opposite our expectations!
Paul’s Story
