This week Rigby shared about the revolution of humility (humiltas in Greek). John Dickson says that "We can date this innovation in ethical reasoning precisely to the middle of the 1st C in a letter written by the apostle Paul to the Christians in the Roman colony of Philippi in northern Greece. Paul urges his readers to live in humility, choosing to think of others as better than themselves. He then drives the point home by quoting a hymn, presumably one known and sung in Philippi, that speaks of Jesus’s humilitas on the cross.’
