Knowing Christ

from St. Peter's Fireside · host St. Peter's Fireside

As we stand on the threshold between Epiphany and Lent, we will focus on Paul’s letter to the church in Philippi. In this letter, Paul makes a bold claim: everything he once counted as spiritual success — his pedigree, performance, and religious passion — he now calls loss compared to one thing: knowing Christ. What if the greatest obstacle to knowing Jesus isn’t failure, but quiet confidence in our own goodness? What if the Christian life isn’t about impressing God, but releasing our grip on achievement and learning to receive? This Sunday, we explore what stands in the way of intimacy with Christ, how we encounter him in both resurrection power and suffering love, and why Lent is an invitation, not to earn more, but to cling more closely to the One who already holds us.
