Session 3 – Philippians; A Call to Unity: David Fleming, 07/13/25


Listen Later

David Fleming led in Part 3 of the summer series on Philippians with a focus on Chapter 2’s call to Unity.

A call to Unity

1. Unity is not uniformity

2. Unity is more than the absence of open warfare

3. Unity is a common faith and interests and purpose

The Key to Unity… Humility

1. Lowliness of mind

2. Modest and accurate understanding of one’s own importance

3. Thinking of others first.

Examples of Humility

1. Jesus humbled Himself for us

2. Excellent example in Paul

3. Excellent example in Timothy

4. Excellent example in Epaphroditus

Points for Home

1. Unity, harmony … not options

2. My humility is my responsibility

3. Test (push) the limits of humility

Listen to David teach that unity in the church requires a key called humility. He provides an in-depth study of the meaning of humility according to Philippians. The essence of humility is Joy: Jesus, Others, Yourself.
