This week we are reading Philippians 2:1-13, which contain within them the beautiful Christ Hymn, and this passage made us think a lot about the role of community in any given person’s ability to live the kind of life Jesus is asking people to live. What does it really mean to be of one mind, in the way that Paul might mean it here? How can we really, actually, realistically fill our minds with concern for another, instead of attending to our own fear and pain and ego? Is it even possible to live the life Paul is talking about without a community of others trying to do the same?  Possible, maybe, but a lot harder.
