0:00.0	Welcome to a year in the Bible with daily grace. My name is Kristen and my name is Katie and we want to spend a few minutes a day with you walking through the New Testament one chapter at a time.
0:11.0	This year we will fix our gaze upon Christ so that we may know
0:14.8	him not only with our minds but with our hearts. Together we will learn that
0:19.1	who Jesus is changes everything.
0:23.0	Welcome back to a year in the Bible with Daily Grace.
0:25.4	My name is Kristen Schmucker, and we are journeying through the New Testament

1:40.8	became a man. These key verses in Philippians put all of our suffering into context
1:46.7	as we see our humble king. Looking at Jesus changes our perspective, and that is what Paul is asking us to do. Jesus is our
1:55.9	example of the humility Paul is calling for and everything that we do should be
