Living in Community: Mutual Submission and Humility

This post is part two of a three-part blog series expanding on themes from our current sermon series on relationships. Each post includes a video interview conducted by our Women’s Ministry Director, Laura Dougherty with our Pastor, Chris Peters.

Relationships are hard because people are broken. So why does God call us to submit to one another? This post explores what mutual submission really means—and what it doesn’t.

Submission isn’t about control or passivity. Pastor Chris explains how humility and love are essential in healthy Christian community, and why this command is about your posture before God more than the worthiness of the other person.
