Gateway Church Austin

In what relationships do you experience submission- both in submitting to others and others submitting to you? Would you say those relationships are healthy? Why or why not?  Do you think submission is a dirty word in Western culture? Why or why not?  What stood out to you from the message?  Read  Ephesians 5:1-2, 15-21 Read Philippians 2:3-11.   In Ephesians 5:21, we are told to submit to one another “out of reverence for Christ”, that is, out of respect for who He is and what He has done for us. When Jesus is your life, you can freely give it to others. In other words, when we are utterly dependent on Christ for our identity, worth and value, we can depend on one another in a healthy way.  What is one relationship this week that you can practice sacrificing your way, yielding to them in love, and seeking their interests above your own? What is one, tangible way you can show that to them?  Key Scriptures:  Ephesians 5:1-2, 15-21 Philippians 2:3-11 Prayer:  Read through Philippians 2:3-11 slowly
