The Epistle of Joy – Episode #10 (Video)
Today we conclude Chapter 2 of Philippians by reading about Paul’s account of Epaphroditus:

Indeed he was ill, near to death. But God had mercy on him, and not only on him but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow. I am the more eager to send him, therefore, that you may rejoice at seeing him again, and that I may be less anxious.
