Calvary Bible Church- Flagstaff Aaron Hulbert

What do you imitate? How does that affect your life? Paul calls us to imitate him while he imitates Christ. How we apply that today is by finding someone who imitates Christ and imitate them.

In Philippians 3 Paul gives us his resume for why he of all people should have confidence that his works produced righteousness. Then he calls it all a pile of garbage. It is as if he burns his resume in order to understand God's grace.

After explaining the importance of humility Paul gives three examples.

After urging the church in Philippi to be united Paul explains how-to live-in unity, then gives the greatest example.

What do you live for? Is life about comfort or do you live for a different purpose? How you answer those questions will greatly affect your outlook on life.

God uses crooked sticks to draw straight lines. This should give us all grace and hope. Grace for other Christians we deem as wrong. Even in their error God can still use them. Hope, because if we are all being honest, we are crooked sticks.
