Next Steps

Growth Group / Personal Reflection Questions

1. Read verses 1 and 2. Is humility necessary for unity within the body of Christ? Why or why not? What happens when humility is lacking in a community?"

2. Verse 3 reads, "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves'. Think and share three ways to model this in your family, at work/school, and church.

3. Read verse 4. How does one find a healthy balance between self-care and looking "...not only to our own interests but also to the interests of others,"?

4. Verses 6–8 describe how Jesus, though fully God, humbled Himself to become human and obedient to death. What does this example teach us about humility?
