Pride is often the true reason why we get our feelings hurt, why we feel rejection, why we wont admit to mistakes, why we want to be seen with certain people, and why we stay angry.

Jesus gives us the perfect example of a powerful life lived without conceit, smugness, or arrogance. So why do we not want to admit to our pride? It is because of our pride!

In The Power of Humility, R.T. Kendall challenges us to look deeply into our hearts and motives to recognize the pride and self-righteousness there. Using personal stories and enlightening examples from the Bible, he demonstrates how pride interferes with a close relationship with God and reveals how to overcome pride and become more like Jesus.

Notes

Endorsements

Pride comes in so many different boxes. As you read this book, youll probably unwrap several boxes of where pride has been hidden in your life. This is what I have found. Another thing I have found is that there is good pride and bad pride, and that helped me with some identities in my own life. This book will bless you in unique ways and set you free.
