Philippians 2:1-11 The Christian faith is built on the altruism and self-sacrifice of its Founder, the one and only Son of God. We don't just think selflessness is good, though - we think that it is the essential remedy to its opposite: Self-interest and self-worship. Selfishness is common to man, but believers are called to self-sacrifice; we must…
