{"product_id":"2940148621478","title":"Chained to Paul -- Exploring Philippians Link By Link","description":"You're a Roman guard. Paul is under house arrest in Rome and you are one of the soldiers assigned to guard him. You arrive at his house at the appointed time and change places with the current guard. The chain connecting Paul to the guard is unlocked and placed around your wrist. It snaps shut and for the next 6 hours you and Paul are chain-mates.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhatever the apostle says, you hear it firsthand. When he stands up to move around, so do you. During your watch every movement, every word, every emotion, every prayer, every dictated sentence of Philippians, Colossians, Ephesians, or Philemon enters your ears.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJust think of the comments Paul might make directly to you -- words of testimony, expressions of joy, exhortations to believe. How could you leave to go home and not be powerfully affected? How could you keep quiet about this amazing man to your colleagues back at the barracks?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's no wonder Paul could write, \"it has become known throughout the whole praetorian guard and to all the rest that my imprisonment is for Christ\" (Philippians 1:13).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChained to Paul is a verse-by-verse devotional commentary on Paul's letter to his friends at Philippi. Of the 13 New Testament books attributed to him, Philippians is the most personal and heartwarming. It is also known as \"The Epistle of Joy.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe author, Roger Schoenhals, memorized Philippians more than 40 years ago and has been mining insights from the four chapters ever since. He has shared his thoughts through college courses, sermons, Sunday school classes, small-group Bible studies, numerous articles, and now through this devotional commentary. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to brief meditations on the 104 verses, you will find seven \"look-back\" devotionals that provide summary observations along the way. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you want to learn about Paul's heart and draw near to Christ in a personal and life-changing way, this book is for you. It makes a wonderful daily devotional book, a study resource, or simply an uplifting book to read when you have spare moments throughout the day.","brand":"PAPAThree Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47067926462704,"sku":"2940148621478","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940148621478_p0.jpg?v=1763705354","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940148621478","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
