Have you ever had an attitude towards others that wasn't a healthy attitude? What kind of attitude does Jesus have?
This message will take you through the practical measures to get back to having an attitude like Jesus...the following is the insert for the message what will help you be mindful of how to get "back on track" with your attitude:
Philippians 2:1 What would happen to your attitude if you listed the ways Christ has encouraged you?
Describe what it means to let Jesus’ love comfort you?
How does the comfort of Jesus’ love persuade you to evaluate your behaviors?
When in fellowship with other Christians; what does it mean to acknowledge the Holy Spirit is shared between you?
Since you are encouraged by Christ, comforted by His love, & share in the Spirit; how would you rate your willingness to express tenderness & compassion to others? (what does your rating say about your heart?)
Philippians 2:2 How would you rate your desire to contribute to the joy of others?
How are you showing and/or how will you seek to show that you desire to lend towards the joy of others?
List the ways you are like-minded with your fellow Christians: -How do you have the same love? -In what ways are you one in spirit with your fellow Christians? -How has God given you one mind or purpose with your fellow Christians?
Philippians 2:3 In what ways have you let self-ambition, self-importance & vain conceit (hollow opinions) create disharmony with others?
From their perspective; what current behaviors do you display that says you value them?
How can you genuinely express to others that you value them?
In humility, Jesus valued your life over His; what must happen for this humility to translate into your life?
Philippians 2:4 How did Jesus place your interests over His interests & how can His behaviors become your behaviors?
