Video: “Secret Ambition” – Michael W. Smith (official music video)  Uh, it’s 90’s.  VERY 90’s…

Nobody knew his secret ambition was to give his life away.

Questions:

  • How does ambition relate to purpose, focus, and vision?
  • Do you think ambition is a good and/or a bad thing?
  • What type of ambition does Paul warn us about in his letter to the Phillipians?
  • According to Paul, what should our ambition be?  Do you think that is good advice?
