Summary

In message three of It’s Contagious, Pass It On, Dr. Michael Youssef issues a bold call to believers: true joy is only visible when Christ reigns supreme and unity prevails. Preaching from Philippians 1:27–2:11, he confronts the sin of pride, bitterness, and self-centeredness that divides hearts, homes, and churches—and robs us of joy. The solution is not tolerance of sin, but repentance, humility, and full submission to the Lordship of Christ. Only when we take on the attitude of Jesus—who humbled Himself, obeyed the Father, and shed His blood—can we experience the contagious joy of salvation. This message presses believers to confess sin, seek unity under Truth, and boldly exhibit the joy that flows from obedience to Christ. If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone. 🙏 Pastoral Care & Prayer Teams Our trained prayer partners and pastoral care team are available to pray with you and offer Biblical support. https://ltw.org/care 💬 Receive personal answers to your faith questions—anytime, day or night—at: https://myfaithassistant.com If you’ve been blessed by this podcast, please consider a tax-deductible donation to help extend this ministry—so another person can be encouraged, prayed for, and pointed to Christ. ❤️ Support Leading The Way: https://www.ltw.org/donate
