Philippians 2:5-11 Application QuestionS

Application Questions for Growth Groups/Personal Reflection

Re-Read Philippians 2:5-11

Did anything strike you from this passage or talk?

What kind of story is our culture telling us about ourselves? About what we deserve, what we should chase, what makes us valuable?

How does the self-giving humility of Jesus challenge that mindset?


  1. From Heaven to Earth (v.6-7)

What does Jesus’ choice to leave heaven tell us about what He values most?

How might His descent challenge the way we think about status, comfort, or success?


  1. From Earth to Cross (v.8)

What does Jesus’ journey to the cross reveal about the cost of true obedience—and how

does that challenge our own willingness to follow God when it’s hard or costly?

Where might we be tempted to avoid sacrifice or suffering—and what would it mean to

walk the path of surrender instead?


  1. From Cross to crown (v.9-11)

How does Jesus’ exaltation reshape what we think true glory looks like?


  1. From Christ to us (v.5)

What shapes the way I think—and how can I let Jesus reshape it?

Where might I need to choose humility over self-interest this week?

What would it look like to seek His honour above my own today?


Spend some time praying about the above.
