Sorry about the sound y'all this episode.
Today, we look at the Philippians reading for Palm Sunday and problematize the concept of Humility for those who are pushed to the margins. Let us embrace a humility that is not about shrinking ourselves but allowing space for communal uplift because we are sharing our gifts and our power.
Action:
What is something that you can learn from someone who has less “power” than you in whatever way - this might be learning a tik tok dance from a younger person. Making space for an elder to preach at you and discover the gems that they might be dropping. It might also look like saying, “I don’t know, tell me.” When you know you could just look up the answer or fake your way through it.
Reflection:
What does humility look like for you? When have you used your gifts for communal shine? Or how might you use your gifts for communal shine?
