Knowing Christ Builds Confidence and Trust

This morning we will examine the concepts of the surpassing value of knowing Christ as we live our lives by His faith. We will use Philippians 3:1-3 for our anchor passage for this lesson.  Much like the old saying, "Don't judge me until you walk in a mile in my shoes." so we will learn how to walk like Him, in His faith so we will come to know Him intimately.  We will also look closer at what it means to know the power of His resurrection, the fellowship of His suffering, and what it means to be conformed to His death.  All of these things, once they are understood, will build both confidence and trust in the power, provision and protection by our Christ and God.
