Save for Later

In a world plagued by anxiety, division, and self-reliance, the contagious joy of the Lord Jesus Christ stands as a powerful witness to the Truth of the Gospel. In It’s Contagious, Pass It On, Dr. Michael Youssef leads you through the Apostle Paul’s letter to the Philippians—a bold call to rejoice not in circumstances, but in Christ alone. This eight-part series confronts the enemies of joy: pride, fear, bitterness, and false teaching. You will learn how to catch the joy of salvation, guard it through obedience, and pass it on through faithfulness and sacrificial living. Rooted in Scripture and driven by urgency, this series calls every believer to reflect the joy of Christ and proclaim His victory to a lost world.

How to Maintain Its Benefits

In the final episode of It’s Contagious, Pass It On, Dr. Michael Youssef reveals the secret to lasting contentment: full surrender to the sufficiency of Christ. Preaching from Philippians 4:10–23, he explains that true joy does not depend on wealth, success, or comfort—it flows from trusting God in both abundance and suffering. The Apostle Paul’s bold declaration, “I can do all things through Christ,” is not about self-empowerment but about the supernatural strength to obey and remain faithful in all circumstances. Dr. Youssef warns against worldly thinking and urges believers to reject fear, trust in God’s provision, and walk in sacrificial obedience. This final call is clear: Only those rooted in Christ and faithful in all things can maintain the joy of salvation and pass it on.
