Growing in Humility
Humility is the path to deeper fellowship with God and others, as well as true Christlikeness and fruitful ministry. Christ’s love was expressed in humble servanthood—in deliberately taking upon himself the role of a servant—and those who would follow him are called to do the same. However, forsaking pride is essential in order to embrace humility and servanthood. In this section we will explore the nature of pride and how to grow in humility.
Our goal is to discover at least some of the pride that infects our lives and commit ourselves to forsaking it and pursuing a lifestyle of humility, following the example of Jesus.
