What Phil. 4:13 is not about:
What Phil. 4:13 is about:
Contentment is Found in Christ
Autarkēs -
Contentment is Learned over Time
Contentment is Practiced through Generosity
Reflection Questions:
As we wrap up our series through Philippians, what is something you have learned that you need to apply to your life?
How are you tempted to find contentment in something other than in Christ? Are you tempted with the illusion of more, that just a little more will satisfy? How does Paul seem to address these temptations in 4:10-20?
It seems that generosity is a way to practice contentment in Christ. How are you putting this into practice right now? How can you continue to grow in this area?
Reading Challenge: Every week during this series, Read Philippians in one sitting.
Memory Challenge: Philippians 4:11-13

Ask God for help (6)
Leave your concerns with him (7)

People of peace find rest in the presence of God.
Philippians 4:9
Questions:
What is one practical step you can take this week to pursue reconciliation or unity, keeping in mind Paul's call to "agree with one another in the Lord"?
What specific worry or "what-if" are you currently carrying that you need to surrender to God? Using the C.A.L.M. framework from the sermon (Celebrate, Ask, Leave, Meditate), how might you practically apply one of those steps to that burden this week?
In what areas of your life are you trying to manufacture peace on your own terms, and what would it look like to instead "rest in the presence of God" in those moments?

Philippians 3:12-4:1
It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish.
How do you finish well?
By Engaging in Discipleship.
By Remembering Your Identity.
By Looking to Heaven.
Reflection Questions:
Have you ever given up on a new year’s resolution? What made you give up?
Do you have people in your life that you are looking to their example as they follow Christ? Do you have people in your life that you are intentionally being an example for?
What will it take for you to finish strong in this life?

Take care of each other.
Philippians 2:19-24
Sacrifice for each other.
Philippians 2:25-30
Life as a follower of Jesus is meant to be lived as a family that takes care and sacrifices for one another.
Reflection Questions
Where have you experienced the “family of God” in a meaningful way—and where might God be inviting you to lean into that more intentionally right now?
Is there a need around you that you’ve noticed but haven’t acted on yet? What would it look like this week to step in and care of someone in a tangible way?
What is one area—your time, your talents, or your treasures—where God may be calling you to sacrifice for the sake of someone else in the family?

Discuss what Paul means by “work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.”
How do we participate in the Sanctification process? And what part does the Holy Spirit play in this process as well?
Who is someone in your life who can hold you accountable this week as you try to live without grumbling or arguing? Ask the Spirit to work in you to produce this attitude as you go throughout your week.

Senior Minister Austin Weece | Sunday, April 19 2026
What does a gospel-life look like?
Humility is the way of the Kingdom, because Humility is the way of the King.
Not thoroughly focused on Me.
But thoroughly focused on Others.
Reflection Questions:
“If the gospel is true, then your life should look like it’s true.” How does your life right now prove that the gospel is true?
In what ways do you see the world around us as only focused on “me”? What parts of your life are you most tempted to fall into the same focus?
What does it look like for you to be thoroughly focused on others this week?
Reading Challenge: Every week during this series, Read Philippians in one sitting.

The Joy of the Gospel gives us perspective.
The Joy of the Gospel is found when Christ is preached.
The Joy of the Gospel is experienced in partnership.
Reflection Questions:
How has the gospel helped give you perspective in hard times? In what areas of your life do you need to have a change of perspective that comes from the gospel?
Who do you need to share the gospel boldly with?
What does it look like for you to partner in the gospel? How are you living that out currently or what do you need to do in order to partner more intentionally?

A good leader pushes you to be the best you can be
Section 1 - Jesus was the Leader they had been waiting for through his fulfilling of Prophecies.
Section 2 - The main purpose of the law was not what you did, but who you became.
Jesus fulfilled the law not solely by what he did but by who he was.
Jesus pushes us to become our best by caring more about who we are than just what we do.

Senior Minister Austin Weece | Sunday, November 16th | We Are Family | Give > Receive | Giving is important to talk about. Giving is awkward to talk about. A generous church is one who receives well. It is good to receive. It is better to give. There is more to be done.
Senior Minister Austin Weece | Sunday, November 9th, 2025 |
A Community that honors the Lord is not just Acquainted, but Devoted. What is a God-Honoring Community devoted to? Devoted to the Word. Devoted to Each Other. Devoted to Worship.
Teaching Minister, Damien Spikereit | Sunday, November 2nd, 2025
The Story of Josiah | 2 Chronicles 34-35, 2 Chronicles 36
A messy story of unkept promises, redeemed by a God who keeps his promises. The boy-king Josiah brought about a revival in the land, honoring the promises made long ago –keeping the Sabbath, renovating the Temple, removing idols, and obeying the Law. However, the final four kings of Israel were unwilling to remain faithful, bringing about the end of David’s throne. For hundreds of years, the people waited for God to fulfill his promise, and he did so in ways they could never have imagined possible. | Visit us at: https://live.cartervillechristian.com
Senior Minister Austin Weece | Sunday, October 26th
The Story of David and Solomon | 2 Samuel 11-12:25, I Kings 1-2
A messy story of hostility, redeemed by a peaceful God | David’s reign was marked by war and hostility. Not only was the warrior king battling against the enemies of Israel, but he also warred against the Lord. Both resulted in death and sadness. For this reason, David was not chosen to build the house of the Lord, but his son, Solomon, was chosen. As his name indicates, Solomon anticipates the coming of the Prince of Peace.
Senior Minister, Austin Weece | October 19th, 2025 - I Samuel 16:1-13, A messy story of how God values the heart over the outward appearance | When God was ready to choose the next king of Israel, he sent his servant to the home of Jesse in Bethlehem. To Jesse’s great surprise, the one chosen was the qatan, the least of his sons, who was left out in the fields. David was chosen because he was a man after God’s own heart (I Samuel 13:14). And to David would come the promise of an eternal kingdom, which is fulfilled in Jesus.
Guest Speaker, James Bond | Ozark Christian College | October 12th, 2025
A messy story of those who are far from God, being brought near to God.
God honors the loyalty and faithfulness of Ruth, a Moabite woman, by welcoming her into the home of Boaz of Bethlehem. As a result, Ruth becomes the great-grandmother of King David, placing her in the lineage of Jesus. Just as the Israelites were to be a light to the nations, so the heart of God is that the church will welcome those who are far from God to be brought near to God.
Senior Minister, Austin Weece | October 5th, 2025
Numbers 13:26-33, Joshua 2, 6:22-25
A messy story of fear (the spies), redeemed by surprising courage (Rahab).
Good stories have a foil—a character who stands in contrast to the protagonist. The courage of Rahab, the unlikely hero of the story, stands in contrast to the initial fear of the spies. On the other side of the story is a renewed courage to step into obedience. And, in the end, she is honored as a mother of Jesus.
Senior Minister, Austin Weece | September 28th, 2025
Genesis 38, 49:8-12
A messy story of brokenness, redeemed by a God who works all things together for his good.
Senior Minister, Austin Weece | September 21st, 2025
Genesis 16-17
A messy story of impatience, redeemed by a merciful God.
Abraham made a habit of jumping in line instead of waiting on the Lord. However, God repeatedly did not give Abraham what he deserved, and instead mercifully allowed his plan to be carried out in Abraham and his descendants.
Teaching Minister, Damien Spikereit | September 14th, 2025
Matthew 1:1-17, Genesis 12:1-3, 2 Samuel 7:11b-17
A messy story, redeemed by God’s unconditional faithfulness.
Understanding the story of the OT requires an understanding of “covenant (berit).” The basis of God’s relationship with Israel, the descendants of Abraham, was conditioned upon the obedience of the people (“if…, then…”). However, God established unconditional covenant promises along the way that find their ultimate fulfillment in Jesus.
