Contemporary people stare at the biblical concept of humility the way a cow stares at a new gate.

The approach of our culture is expressive individualism, and it completely flies in the face of what the Bible says about the importance of humility. So let’s look in Philippians 2 at this concept of humility.

There couldn’t be a more relevant topic than faithfulness—a word that means honesty, integrity, and truthfulness.

Americans’ trust of their institutions—business, government, church—is at an all-time low. All the studies show that. There’s a sense that there has been a failure of integrity in our society at all levels. Therefore, what does the Bible have to say about this all-important subject?

How do you talk about kindness? Depending on the context, the Greek word can be translated as fitting, pleasing, honest, or compassionate. How do you talk about a word with that kind of lexical range?

The answer is you can’t do it abstractly. You have to look at a kind of relationship that combines all those traits. The kind of relationship that combines them is friendship. And nothing is more humanizing and life-changing than friendship.

John 15 is a unique passage about friendship. It tells us 1) the character or nature of friendship, 2) how you forge friendship, and 3) where you get the power for friendship.
