The Joyful Peace

Oct 26, 2025    Mike Abbott

This sermon from Philippians 4:4-7 addresses the reality of Christian anxiety while offering practical biblical solutions for finding peace. Mike Abbott acknowledges that Christians do experience worry, anxiety, and conflict—as evidenced throughout Scripture—but emphasizes that God provides peace that transcends understanding.


The message focuses on how believers can experience joyful peace despite circumstances through remaining in Christ, prayer, positive thinking, and following godly examples. The central theme is that while we cannot pray away anxiety entirely, we can lay it at Jesus' feet and experience His supernatural peace that guards our hearts and minds.
