Passage: Philippians 2:25-30 (RSV)


Philippians 2


25I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphrodi'tus my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, and your messenger and minister to my need,
26for he has been longing for you all, and has been distressed because you heard that he was ill.
27Indeed he was ill, near to death. But God had mercy on him, and not only on him but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.
28I am the more eager to send him, therefore, that you may rejoice at seeing him again, and that I may be less anxious.
29So receive him in the Lord with all joy; and honor such men,
30for he nearly died for the work of Christ, risking his life to complete your service to me.
