Many people are walking around in self-imposed captivity. They have allowed certain thoughts and feelings to take root in their hearts and minds and, as a result, are seeing life slip away. They have become their own enemies. This 5-week series will walk through the healthy spiritual journey of letting go of some key unhealthy behaviors: pride, anger, lust, jealousy, and bearing a grudge.
January 2, 2022 – Letting Go of Pride
Jeremiah 9:23-24
One of the most challenging tasks in life is corralling the monster of pride. There is so much internal and external pressure to focus on self, to inflate the importance of self, and see meeting the needs of self as of utmost importance. While the need for significance is legitimate, God directs us to find that significance through a path of humility and emptying self. Only when pride is identified and killed can true life in Christ begin.
