(Sermon preached November 20, 2022) In Philippians 4:4-9, Paul tells us that rejoicing is appropriate for all occasions and is the gateway to the peace that passes all understanding. He wrote these words from a prison cell. We can choose joy. Dr. Edith Eva Eger, wrote the book, “The Choice” in 2017. She is a survivor of Auschwitz and earned her degree as a Clinical Psychologist at the age of 50. Like Paul, she affirms that no one can take from us our power to choose how we respond to whatever life throws at us.
