What if the path to true joy runs straight through humility? In Philippians 2:1-11, Paul challenges us to set aside selfish ambition and conceit, and to consider others more significant than ourselves. That cuts against everything our culture tells us.

The ultimate example of humility is Jesus himself. Though he was fully God, he emptied himself, took on flesh, and submitted to death on a cross — an act so brutal and shameful in the Roman world that the word "cross" was considered a curse. He who created and sustains all things became a curse for us. That is the depth of his love.

And here is the stunning reversal: because of that humility, God exalted him above every name. Every knee will bow. Every tongue will confess. The way up is the way down. Unity in the church is not accidental. It flows from humility. Come join us as we dig into what it looks like to live that out together.
