In this message from Philippians 2, Pastor Kit invites us to examine what we’re really pursuing during the Christmas season. While culture pushes us to chase comfort, recognition, and the “perfect” holiday, Scripture points us to a different pursuit: the humility of Christ.
The sermon walks through Jesus’ willingness to lay aside His rights, take on the role of a servant, and obey the Father even to the point of death on a cross. Rather than grasping for power or status, Jesus chose humility — and because of that, God exalted Him above every name.
As we celebrate Christmas, we’re reminded that Jesus experienced the tree of death so that we could have life. This message calls us to stop chasing success as the world defines it and instead pursue faithfulness, service, and humility, trusting God to do the exalting in His time.
