Complete, Don't Compete | Pastor Jacob Gaines

From our series: "An Invitation to Joy" Joy grows when we choose each other. We continue our series, "An Invitation to Joy," by exploring Philippians 1, where Paul models a different kind of leadership and a deeper kind of community. From the very first lines, grace and peace reset the heart. Paul writes with gratitude, not grievance, proving joy isn’t the absence of hardship but the presence of a different focus. This message seeks to reframe church as a team on mission—people who complete one another rather than compete. The shift is practical: celebrate others and watch how resentment gives way to intercession and honor. Paul’s confidence anchors it all: the God who began a good work will carry it to completion. Even in chains, he leans outward, reminding us that pain doesn’t require isolation. Carrying each other means getting close enough to lift, listen, and stay.
