Godliness and Humility

Charisma and CharacterSteve Gregg
In "Godliness and Humility," Steve Gregg explores the components of a theocentric, or God-centered, life through the lens of the fruits of the Spirit listed in 1 Timothy 6:11. He emphasizes the importance of holiness and acknowledging God's presence in daily life, as well as cultivating an attitude of humility rather than self-aggrandizement. Gregg cautions against the dangers of self-deception and false humility, and encourages a focus on gratitude and thankfulness as a marker of a truly God-centered life.
