Jesus the Servant King: Finding Joy in Serving Others | Philippians 2 Sermon


Listen Later

Is your Christmas season feeling more stressful than soulful? In this powerful Christmas message, Pastor Chris DeArman explores Philippians 2 to reveal a side of Jesus we often overlook: The Servant King. While the world competes for status and "selfish ambition," Jesus offers a different way to live that leads to true connection and community.

In this sermon, you'll discover three profound ways Jesus serves you right now:

He Sits With Us: Jesus isn't a distant God; He entered into our suffering and "emptied himself" to be with us in our mess.

He Saves Us: He bore the full weight of our sin on the cross so that our guilt is gone and our forgiveness is forever.

He Prays For Us: Right now, Jesus is at the right hand of God interceding for you. You are not alone in your struggles.

"Selfish ambition kills connection, but counting others first creates community." Learn how to shift your perspective this holiday season and live in the light of Christ's service to us.
