Philippians 2:5-8

Self-promotion is so natural we barely notice it. We angle for recognition, guard our reputations, and resist situations that might diminish our status. But Jesus—who had every reason to insist on His position—chose the opposite path entirely.

From Philippians 2:5–8, Pastor Chuck Swindoll unpacks one of the most majestic passages in Scripture: how Jesus, though existing in the very form of God, emptied Himself, took the form of a bond-servant, and humbled Himself to death on a cross.

Let this portrait of Christ confront your own pride. Have the same attitude—and live with the freedom that comes with a servant’s heart.
