Episode Synopsis

In this powerful message from our Summer in the Scriptures series, Pastor Dave Hentschel unpacks Philippians 2:1–11 to explore what it means to build a gospel-shaped community. Using vivid imagery like football blindside hits to the humility of Christ, Pastor Dave challenges us to confront our spiritual blind spots and consider who’s protecting our “blind side.” True Christian community isn’t built through self-promotion or shallow connection, but through humility, mutual care, and sacrificial love. Drawing from Paul’s profound Christ-hymn, we’re reminded that "community thrives where self-centeredness dies, and self-centeredness dies when we look to the cross." Discover how relationships with a Paul, a Timothy, and a Barnabas can help anchor you in a life of spiritual accountability and growth. Don’t miss this invitation to go deeper, not just in knowledge, but in Christlike love.August 3rd, 2025
