Proverbs: Pride (Part 1)

ProverbsSteve Gregg
In this session, Steve Gregg delves into the topic of pride and its manifestations, using Proverbs as a guide. He explains that although God created us for a purpose, we should not become self-focused and prioritize our own happiness and desires above all else. Gregg stresses the importance of humility, which he defines as acknowledging the gifts and talents that we have without feeling a negative sense of pride, and recognizing that we are just a small part of a larger body. He cautions against thinking shallowly and judging solely based on surface appearances.
