In his letter to the church in Philippi, the Apostle Paul reminds them that despite suffering and persecution they are to be encouraged through the power of the Spirit. Why? To humbly love one another through service and to be unified in one accord as they worship Jesus. It’s also here that we see one of the most vivid accounts of Jesus’ character as He defines humility while obeying the will of God the Father. Believing in Jesus changes everything - for us and the early church - and this week we’ll see how following Jesus may not be easy, but that the life spent worshiping Him in community is the chief way to bring glory to God.
