In the second week of our series, Philippians: A Call to Counterintuitive Living, Lead Pastor Bartley Sawatsky explores the challenging idea that suffering is a privilege and that the path to true exaltation lies in humility. Drawing from Paul's teachings, Pastor Bartley examines how embracing hardship and putting others first can lead to a deeper connection with Christ and a more authentic Christian life. This message invites us to rethink our approach to suffering and exaltation, showing that the way forward may not be what we expect.
